Matilda

This was so cozy and sweet and I'm so sad that I didn't read this as a child. Yet in a way, I was able to heal and reconnect with my younger self. It was smart with adult themes, and only felt juvenile in Miss Trunchbull's interactions with the kids. Any reader would enjoy this, and I'm glad I could appreciate it as an adult. Can't wait to see the screen adaptations for the first time!
