Matilda is a novel by Roald Dahl illustrated by Queltin Blake. It is about a young phenomenal girl who is just five years old and has a genius brain, Matida. She loves to read books is very good at math, her parents don't approve this and influence her to watch the television, but she doesn't. She is her parents's second child her older brother is a spoiled brat, all because of his parents. Matilda's father owns a car dealership where he cheats his customers. Matilda visits the town library very often and spend hours reading novels in the company of the kind librarian, Miss Phelps. One day her parents enrolled her in a school, Crunchem Hall where she met the warmhearted teacher, Miss Honey who was amazed by Matilda's marvelous brain. Matilda made friends with a girl named Lavender at school who enjoyed each other's company. But the only fear Matilda had at school was the mighty mean headmistress, Miss Trurunchbull who is a retired javelin thrower and hates children and calls them maggots and newts. When Miss Honey tells the Trunchbull about Matilda she is not the slightest bit impressed. Then Miss Honey tried telling Matilda's parents but is shocked with how Matilda's parents treat her. But the surprises don't end here Miss Honey gets even more surprised when Matilda shows her that she can make things move with her eyes. Matilda uses this power to get rid of the Thrunchbull. The story has an even happier ending when her crook parents run off to Spain Matilda stays with Miss Honey, who becomes headmistress with the Trunchbull gone. Once you start reading it you can't put it down. I would recommend everyone to read it.

A mi hija le ha encantado.

I bought this book for the daughter of a friend of mine because it was one of my favourite books growing up. I don't really know if she enjoyed it or not though.

Roald Dahl est un super auteur. Dans cette histoire, une petite fille surdoué rencontre des difficultés à l’école. Elle va se rendre compte qu’en plus d’être intelligente, elle possède une capacité très singulière. Niveau anglais B1-B2
