The title of my book is called Matilda and it’s by Roald Dahl. The main character is Matilda. The main problem is that the Trunchbull, who is the headmistress in Matilda’s first grade class, is really mean and strict to everyone and she causes most of the problem. Her rules are Terrible.One of Trunchbulls rules is if she thinks a child did something wrong, she puts that child in a closet that has lots of nails sticking out of it. The story takes place in a couple of places which are in Matilda’s house, Ms. Honey’s (Matilda’s nice teacher’s) classroom, in the cafeteria, and Ms. Honey’s house.
About in the middle of the book Matilda finds out she has powers, and she can move thing with her mind. Now Matilda probably feels really amazing. She probably plays around with her powers when she’s alone. The only person she showed her powers to was Ms. Honey. I think this is important because if I had superpowers I could move thing with my mind like, move my jacket to the coset. I would use it all the time so I don’t have to do a lot of things like, move my jacket to the coset. My point is that being able to move things with her mind is awesome. Three really important parts of book are: Mrs. honey’s parents are dead. She’s not sure how her dad died. Matilda is so smart and she’s so small.
Matilda is smart because she knows all of the multiplication combinations, and because she knows how to talk to her parents without getting angry. She is calm because she never gets angry at her family. Matilda is very curious, because when she went to Ms. Honey’s house for the first time, she asked her a lot of questions. One of the best quotes Matilda said was, “Dad you made exactly four thousand three hundred and three pounds and fifty pence altogether,” because she’s making it seem like she’s smarter than her dad. Because her dad thought kids can’t be smart, so he thought that Matilda lied by looking at his sheet with the answers.
I like this book because it’s not scary. I also like this book because it’s about a really nice girl. I recommend this book because it’s not about a ordinary girl. I also recommend this book because it’s full of surprises. The movie Matilda is just like the book. The only difference is that in the book the mom is fat and the dad is skinny, but in the movie the dad is fat and the mom is skinny. I also think the book Matilda is similar to the movie Annie because because both of their care takers are mean. I’d give the book five stars.
