Veruca Salt is a fictional character from Roald Dahl's classic story Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. She is a very spoiled, immature, overindulgent, and manipulative little girl who is also very rich that lives in a mansion with her parents. Veruca is treated like a princess by her parents and give her anything she wants, no matter how ridiculous the price and expresses no gratitude at all from anybody, not even her own parents for what she is given. She is the second person to find a Golden Ticket, although she never found it herself since one of her father's workers in his nut-shelling factory did so after buying a large amount of boxes full of Wonka bars. Veruca is also the third contestant to be eliminated from the tour of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory after she demanded to be given a squirrel from the Nut-Sorting Room where she is thrown down a rubbish chute by said squirrels after being decreed a "bad nut" when she tried to take one anyway when Mr. Wonka denied to give her one, saying that they weren't for sale.
In the small, poor town-made junkyard, a charismatic leader and his band of homeless orphan children form the Scrapyard Squad. When a mysterious lost little girl joins their ranks, they embark on imaginative escapades, using their resourcefulness, street smarts, and unique abilities to navigate the challenges of their unconventional home and discover the true meaning of friendship, family, and belonging. Together, they create their own adventure-filled world amidst scrap heaps and build unbreakable bonds that defy the odds.
