I used to love this book when I was little lol

I first read this book during elementary school, and I have to admit at that time the book was hard to put down. I was amazed at how a young girl like Matilda could achieve so many things throughout this story, so I'd recommend it to light readers.

Dear Mr. Henshaw is a pretty good book because it was the first book I read that taught me a lot about what it's really like to have divorced parents

Book Review: Matilda by Roald Dahl What do you get when you mix a stunning little abandoned girl with rich gansta parents, boiled with an awful headmistress, and extremely poor but nice teacher and hint of cheeky tricks? Well, you’ve whipped up Roald Dahl’s famous classic Matilda and this book is for you. Matilda is the smartest little girl ever, already reading at three and sneaking off to the local library while her mum plays Bingo. She has numerous tricks up her sleeve for her family who disgraces her for not watching enough horrible TV shows. But the real problem starts when she goes to school. After a small time at school getting in trouble for nothing, she discovers something about herself, something that can only be controlled by her mind. But it could be useful, couldn’t it? Making a quick relationship with her teacher, Miss Honey, and a girl named Lavender. She soon discovers how poor Miss Honey really is and all about her tragic past. But how long can she survive the big and brutal headmistress? I think the whole book is very good, but the end stands out for me. I would recommend this book to anyone able to read fluently. Matilda is more than a bunch of words, more than just a book, it engulfs you and switches your mind, it is some live piece of magic. Because when you start you can’t stop. Also once you have read it you’ll be glad you did!
