This story was fun! Matilda's michives were very fun and clever. I like the most was that she put glue inside of his father's hat. Her family was really strange, so I was happy that she was able to live with Miss Honey. ( )

Matilda has miracle power. But her parents don't notice her power. She uses this power for revenge. The situation is funny and makes me fun and happy. I reccomend reading this book again and again. ( )

When I was high school student, I got this book.
I try to read again because I saw my friend was reading this.

Matilda is very clever! I want to be like her.
But I can't believe such terrible adults exist.
I felt good when she got revenge for them. ( )

Matilda is a so clever girl, and she dishes out mean-sprited adults around her. This story was so fun, and I was excited the unexpected plot twist. It comes to happy end, so I was satisfied with this story. ( )
