I remember loving this as a child! I re-read it many times because of how much I loved it.

Read when I was a child, so my opinion can be distorted by the fact that I read it more than 10 years ago and the fact that I loved Matilda.

I really enjoyed this one. It's actually one of the only book-adaptation movies that I think is a bit better than the book. There were some differences between the two, and it was interesting to see that.

Matilda's parents are mean, really mean to Matilda. And Matilda is brilliant, amazingly brilliant.

Somehow, despite this, it is a funny book. You never feel sorry for Matilda and you know everything is going to come out okay in the end.

♥️ a childhood favorite - it really is so good though!! And I love how similar the movie adaptation is to this book

I loved seeing how they took the book and made such a wonderful movie. It was hard to read some of what Miss Trunchbull did.

I felt like I was Matilda (minus the whole terrible parent thing). This sparked my love of reading and taught me it was ok to be smart.

Letto, riletto e stra-letto alle elementari (con tanto di film stra-visto).. Probabilmente è uno dei libri da rileggere nei giorni in cui ci si sente particolarmente malinconici e nostalgici :)

Kate Winslet performing this was magic!
