I love this book! Part of it is a fantasy because it has a little bit of magic in it, but I LOVE fantasy! And of course, Roald Dahl is a good writer!

Matilda is a genius. I mean it! A five-year-old girl is a genius. She talked perfectly when she was 2 years old, new how to read in about 5. And she taught herself all of this. Well, her parents are just plain mean to her. They call her dump, idiot, and they say SHUT UP! Yep, they are mean.

Well, when she is old enough to go to school, she just amazing her teacher Miss Honey. Miss Honey talks to the headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, but there is NO way that Matilda is going to movie up. The Trunchbull is just TO mean.

This is some of the things that The Trunchbull does to her students!

1. Pulls them by the hair

2. Pulls them by their ears

And more!


Matilda would be a hero if she got rid of The Trunchbull, well, it would just take a lot of magic to do that!



There is the wold a** in and then OH MY GAWD. But nothing really really bad.
