Matilda by Roald Dahl

This book is about a four year old girl named Matilda. Her parents, Mr and Mrs.Wormwood, don't spend much time with her and they always think she is stupid and usesless. When she is bored, she often goes to a library. Eventhough she is only 4, she could read like a grown up.

She goes to school for the first time when she is 5 years old, her teacher, Ms.Honey is amazed about how she could do Maths better than a 5th grader.

The principle in Matilda's school doesn't like kids, she often treat students very badly, and looked down to them. One time, the principle blames her for what she didn't do. Matilda is so upset, magically, she is able to spill water on the principle with her mind.

She finds out that Ms.Honey owes the Principle alot of money. So she wants to help her out. In the class, she controls the chalk with her mind and writes on the board that "Give Ms.Honey a house to live and her wages back, and get out of here."

No one sees her again.

Mr and Mrs. Wormwood are caught by cheating on people, so they move to Italy and leave Matilda behind. Afterwards she is adopted to Ms.Honey and they lived happy.

My thought about this book: It is a fun book to read, with pictures. It is easy to understand and very interesting
