Matilda by Roald Dahl
The books transported her into new worlds and introduced her to amazing people who lived exciting lives. She went on olden-day sailing ships with Joseph Conrad. She went to Africa with Ernest Hemingway and to India with Rudyard Kipling. She travelled all over the world while sitting in her little room in an English village.
This is one of my forever-favs. This book gave me so much joy as a child and it still holds a special place in my heart. Little Matilda Wormwood with her wretched family, her wretched headmistresses, and so much cunning in her mind that she devises a way to help herself, her classmates and the wonderful Miss Honey.
Four for you, Matilda.
I love Roald Dahl and this is my favourite one by him, such a joy to read! 😊
This, The Witches and Charlie were my favs!
You know, I’ve never read this one! I’ve read so many other Dahl books too, not sure why I didn’t pick up Matlida.
You should totally pick it up!
What a post! This is so chock full of useful
information I can not wait to dig deep and get started
using the resources you have given me. Your exuberance is refreshing.
