Hi! Everyone the book that i am going 2 talk about is Called "Matilda."
Now many of you may know the author Roald Dhal. He is quite a very famous auothor. He Wrote this book in 1994/5 (not sure what year).
This book is about a girl she loves to read.Her name is Matilda.
Now i am pretty sure that most of your parents tell you to study instead of watching tv.Right? Well Matilda's Parents are a bit different. They don't care about grades or how well you do in school or weather or not you pass or fail! They love to watch t.v. but Matilda is very different from her family.Her older brother likes to take the easy way out and not only that he doesn't care about his grades. Matilda is very smart for her age. She was able to read by the age of 3 she knew how to do complecated math by the time she was 5.
This story is very interesting yet extremly funny. Their are parts in the story where Matilda can be a prankster.She likes to watch her parents when they get pranked. Using her smarts she faces the ugly ness and horrible and extremly rude princaple. Wjho shall remain name less.
I would recommend this book to people who like to read and people who love to pull pranks on others.Also this would be a very good book to read as a class for grade 4's and up,During say i don't know um... story time i guess.This is only one of the amazing books that Roald Dhal has writen if you like this i would reccomend " The BFG" Also writen by Roald Dhal.
Comments
I think that Roald Dhal is a very good writer too. If you buy the book and read it you should also buy the movie. The movie lets you hear what Matilda is thinking (the Narrator does that job) and she takes you on these crazy adventures! I'm so sure that you would like to know what the principals name is. Well, go buy the book and find out!
