Linear Perspective is the most basic form of perspective in which all objects with faces parallel to the horizon, appear to converge in the distance at a single point on the horizon (the vanishing point).

Instead of getting a set of draw reins, spend that money on a loose snaffle. Work with that for a while.
To learn what on Earth this possibly means, grab yourself:
- a few sheets of 18' x 24' paper *
- a pencil
- a straight metal ruler
- a white mars plastic eraser

Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator is a children's book by British author Roald Dahl. It is the sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, continuing the story of young Charlie Bucket and chocolatier Willy Wonka as they travel in the Great Glass Elevator. The book was first published in the United States by Alfred A. Knopf, Inc. in 1972, and in the United Kingdom by George Allen & Unwin in 1973.
Although the original book has been filmed three times—for the big screen in 1971 and 2005, and as an animated direct-to-video-crossover with Tom and Jerry in 2017--The Great Glass Elevator has never been adapted on a visual medium; however it was adapted for audio by Puffin Audio Books starring Neil Answych as Charlie Bucket and Gordan Fairclough as Willy Wonka.[1] Dahl began writing a third book in the series, titled Charlie in the White House, but did not complete it.[2]
Plot[edit]
The story picks up where the previous book left off, with Charlie and his whole family aboard the flying Great Glass Elevator. The Elevator goes into orbit accidentally, and Mr. Wonka docks them at the Space Hotel 'U.S.A.'. Shortly after their arrival, the hotel's elevators open, revealing man-eating monsters, known as Vermicious Knids, which form the word 'SCRAM'. Recognising the danger, Mr. Wonka orders his group off the Space Hotel. The hotel staff escape only after some have been (presumably) eaten by the Knids. Charlie suggests towing the Shuttle back to Earth, and in the process, the Knids are incinerated in the atmosphere. Mr. Wonka releases the Shuttle, and the Elevator crashes down through the roof of the chocolate factory.
Back in the chocolate factory, three of Charlie's grandparents refuse to leave their bed. Mr. Wonka gives them a rejuvenation formula. They take much more than they need, subtracting eighty years. Two become babies, but 78-year-old Grandma Georgina vanishes, having become '−2'. Charlie and Mr. Wonka journey to 'Minusland', where Mr. Wonka sprays her with a compound that makes people older. Grandma Georgina has become 358 years old. Using a cautious dose, the three are restored to their original age.

Finally, the President of the United States invites the family and Mr. Wonka to the White House to thank them for their space rescue.
Unfinished sequel[edit]
A follow-up to the book was planned, called Charlie in the White House. Charlie's family and Mr. Wonka are invited by President Gilligrass to have dinner at the White House, as thanks for rescuing the spacecraft from its attack by the Vermicious Knids. Dahl only wrote the first chapter, which is on display at the Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre in Great Missenden.[3]
