Matilda is a book about a little girl who is a genius. Her parents do not care about how talented their child is. I recommend this book to everyone who likes to read funny, and fun books Matildaś speech was perfect by the age of one and a half, she knew as many words as normal adults. By the age of three, she thought herself to read. Another interesting thing about the book is that she wants to become the hero of the school, in order to become the hero of the school she has to get rid of Miss Trunchbull she is a gigantic holy terror, a fierce tyrannical monster who would frighten the life out of the pupils and teachers. Roald Dahl is a great author who uses lots of imagery in his books it almost feels like you are watching a movie while reading his books, and I really recommend this book to everyone itś a fun, and interesting book
