Description
Matilda Wormwood is no ordinary little girl.
She’s a genius. She taught herself to read before she was 4, devours classics at lightning speed, and can solve math problems like a calculator. But her parents? They think she’s just a nuisance.
At school, things aren’t much better. The terrifying headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, is a bully who rules with fear and throws children for punishment (literally). But Matilda isn’t afraid. Not even a little.
With her brilliant mind, a kind teacher named Miss Honey, and a mysterious power bubbling inside her… Matilda is ready to take a stand. And when she does, the grown-ups better watch out!
