Matilda is one of my favourite books.

I think the story is exciting lots of strange

things happen.

Matilda has a mean family and they don't like

how much she enjoys reading and learning.

Matilda found out that she had magic powers

that meant she could move things with her mind.

She used this power to teach bullies like Miss

Trunchbull and her dad a lesson to stop them

being so mean to people.

My favourite part was when she made a glass of

water that had a newt in it tip over, making the

newt land on Miss Trunchbull. She was scared of

the newt and started screaming so all the children laughed at her.

Matilda did have 1 person that cared about her and she cared about them, her name was Miss Honey. They helped each other to get rid of the bullies in their lives. Miss Trunchbull was so scared of the things that happened she ran away and Matilda's family also left she didn't want to go with them and stayed with Miss Honey. She proved you can achieve things if you put your mind to it!
