Okay, so I might not be in the catchment of Roald Dahl's books anymore at the age of 20, but this is still my number 1 favorite childrens book. Matilda is a little girl who has mean old parents. She goes to school one day and makes her teacher Miss Honey, did realize she is very intelligent, and she starts to see what she can do with her skills, and this leads to all sorts of exciting capers, for she is a very special little girl. Watch as she gets her own back on everyone thats mean! Anyway I will tell you no more as I have already seen the many other reviewers have given away the ending! Parents- Buy your children this book. It does not talk about cruel realities of life, or Things That You Should Be Telling your child about once They get old enough, it's a good old fashioned fairy tale with a modern approach .A brilliant story and Roald Dahl's story telling abilities are really Amazing! My family Brought me up on Roald Dahl, theywere the first books I ever read by myself and I want to remember them all my life as the most fun, great, and imaginative stories to read, did real Encouraged me to start to read and helped my vocabulary as a child! Even if your not a kid- This is a book that's seeking great fun to read!
