She expects school to be different but there she has to face Miss Trunchbull, a menacing, kid-hating headmistress. When Matilda is attacked by the Trunchbull she suddenly discovers she has a remarkable power with which to fight back. It'll take a superhuman genius to give Miss Trunchbull what she deserves and Matilda may be just the one to do it!

wood tear the pages of the books then Matilda went to school and is now with Mrs.honey later on Matilda met Mrs.trunchbull, a lot of days later Mrs.trunchbull was fainted after she saw the chalk write in the white board, later Matilda's family went to Spain so Mr.wormwood won't get caught by the cops
by stealing stolen cars. Will Matilda go to Spain or will stay with Ms.honey? My favorite part was Matilda was putting some super blond color dye in Mr.wormwood's hair. The theme is always be polite and always be honest about yourself, the problem is Matilda didn't like how Mrs.trunchbull was disrespectful to her and the solution is Matilda was writing with a chalk in the board and Mrs.trunchbull fainted

Matilda written by Roald Dahl is about a girl named Matilda.Matilda's parents are really rude.They do not care her.Matilda takes care of herself because mainly no one was at the house.She even walked to the library herself.Matilda tricked her parents as pay back.Matilda was in the school were there was frighten children but evil headmistress.Are Matilda's parents ever going to change and start treating her good ,care for her, or at least give her a bit of love because she is their daughter.
My favorite part is when Lavender sneeks in the classroom and with the newt she captured at her home she put it in the jug where Miss.Trunchbull the headmistress allways drinked out of and that day Miss.Trunchbull was going to go teach Miss.Honeys class which is Matilda's and Lavender's teacher.That was smart of Lavender because she sneeked in and no one saw her so they can not say it was possibly her when it was her.Well by reading this great amazing story I think the theme of this story is to be happy even if you have powers like for example Matilda was not happy and she had powers but at te end of the story she was happy because Miss.Honey adopts Matilda and they are both happy.

Matilda went to the library and got books. she was even ready for school. Matilda's father took her to a school to start. That is when she met Miss honey. Miss honey said that she was very smart. Miss honey was not only her teacher she was her friend. Matilda had met Ms. Trunchbull . Matilda said she looked very mean and other girls said she was mean. will Ms. trunchbull Like Matilda ? My favorite part was when Matilda found out that trunchbull was Miss honeys aunt. She took care of her but she was mean. trunchbull wrote a fake note that she gets to keep the house but she does not. Matilda got the house for Miss honey to live in. And that is when Matilda moved in with miss honey. The theme could be to never let people treat you bad treat people how you want to be treated.
