Roald Dahl - Matilda (New Paperback)
Synopsis
Matilda is a sweet, exceptional young girl, but her parents think she's just a nuisance. She expects school to be different but there she has to face Miss Trunchbull, a kid-hating terror of a headmistress.
When Matilda is attacked by the Trunchbull she suddenly discovers she has a remarkable power with which to fight back. It'll take a superhuman genius to give Miss Trunchbull what she deserves and Matilda may be just the one to do it.
The great Roald Dahl’s final novel for children is also, arguably, his best, with the tale of book-loving Matilda Wormwood’s quiet revenge against her grotesque guardians possessing real emotional depth.
A darkly hilarious tribute to the joys of reading, Matilda fizzes with invention and imagination.

"I think that this book is amazing - this got me totally addicted to Road Dahl when I was younger - I couldn't stop reading any of them! "Matilda" is a magical novel that has transported me to another world countless of times! I cannot recall how many times my version has been re-read!" - Waterstones Review.
