This was one of my favorites as a kid. When I was little, I wanted to be Matilda. Maybe that's why I read so much now. I recently re-read it as a "grown up" and found I loved the story and characters even more. A great book for childern and adults, Matilda is lightheard, but also touches on some deep themes and I think deep down we all wish we had her abilities.

This is a wonderfully funny book that children and adults can both enjoy. The pranks that she pulls on people are funny and ingenious!! It becomes even funnier when you know they deserve it too!!!

A lovely book by the genius writer, Roald Dahl. This book is a sure favorite for children everywhere! Matilda is a bookworm in a tv watchers world. Perhaps you can relate? Very creative and great imagery.
