The Matilda Effect

I thought it was good because it had things to make and it was very descriptive. I think it would be good for all ages and all sizes! My favourite part was when they landed in the hot air balloon on top of the Eiffel Tower!

Cool but planet Matilda doesn't exist

A great read

the matilda effect inspires me to fight for women's right

I think that the book was awesome. I liked Matilda best. I would recommend it to someone else.

This is a really good book! I live how it's all about girl power and inspiring girls to be scientists! But also I found Matilda's adventures fun and imaginative! I just really enjoyed the book!

I love this book because it is full of adventure. My favourite character is Matilda because she loves inventing and is determined to get the noble prize to her grandma and not to someone who stole her idea. Can they tell everyone the truth before it's too late?

This was a sharp, funny, fast-paced adventure for Matilda and her granny. I loved every surprising twist and turn and most of all loved Matilda’s fearlessness, relentless determination and passion for standing up for what is right and fair. We should all ‘be more Matilda’!

Science, adventure and girl power all in one book! I loved the twists in the story and the references to real scientists and their achievements. A good read #tellingherstory

This fun adventure story is an inspiring read for future female scientists and inventors. Great for starting a discussion about how females have not been recognised for their achievements in the past. I loved reading all of hurdles Matilda and her grandmother came across on their journey, along with the entertaining characters they met. This is definitely one for sharing in KS2.

I really enjoyed reading this book because it showed you that women and girls can do just as well as men with determination. the book has a great adventure and in places is funny. I would recommend this book to children over the age of 5 though younger children will need help with some of the words.

This is an amazing book I got from the library before lockdown and my fav bit is when she changes the lyrics to Waterloo by ABBA

It was fictional, very funny, wholesome and inspirational. After every page I wanted to turn over. I would definitely recommend it.

I really enjoyed this book it was about Matilda and Granny Joss and they went on a thrilling adventure. I would recommend this book to anyone that likes adventure books.

amazing

I find it so funny like what could be more funny the an old lady in a laundry basket and your mum and dad, loves having a nice and tidy and clean car, driving in a van that looks like a dog.

It was very adventurous and interesting

I really enjoyed reading this wonderful book and my faviroute character was Matilda and her granny . I would recommend it to every one who likes reading.

Amazing!!!

sciency

this book was not brilliant and rather boring. i did not enjoy this book as much as the other so i don't have much to say about it and thats why i rate this book
2 OUT OUT OF 5!

i absoutly loved this book how matilda wanted to help her granny

Good book

I loved this book! It's really good.
The story is about a girl called Matilda, who, because she is a girl, does not get picked for a science competition. One day she finds out that her granny Joss discovered a planet but one of her work colleagues stole all her work. The story follows Matilda and Granny Joss to the Nobel Prize ceremony.

Amazing science book

I think other children should read this book as it is full of adventure, it has lots of invention ideas, and shows what can really happen if you put your mind to it
