“A true genius . . . Roald Dahl is my hero” David Walliams
Matilda’s parents have called her some terrible things, but the truth is she’s a genius and they’re the stupid ones. Underestimating Matilda proves to be a big mistake as they, along with her spiteful headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, soon find out when Matilda discovers she has a very special power.

The book was easy to read, and the characters were fun. It also teaches us that being kind and using our mind is very important.

I would have loved it, if there wasn't that much violence. However some parts fascinated I would recommend. for example Matilda starting to like adult books. I would recommend to people who like action

This is such an interesting and fun story. My favourite character is Miss Trunchbull, who reminded me of characters from the Victorian Age.
Recommend it.

I really liked this book and I had already seen the movie so I thought it was a good idea to read the book as well. My favourite character was Matilda because I like her personality and how she reads lots of books even though her family are always watching TV. This was a fiction book and I would definitely recommend reading it and watching the movie!
