Matilda
Author: Roald Dahl
Illustrator: Quentin Blake
Publisher: Puffin
Matilda is a genius. She is too good to be true. At the young age of five, she was completing double-digit multiplications with ease and rapidly making her way through Dickens literary collection. But everything is not so perfect for Matilda at home.
Matilda lives with her selfish parents and idiotic brother. No one appreciates her greatness. Luckily for Matilda, she has the wit and brilliance to deal with their insanity and annoyances. Underestimating her powers is a big mistake as Matilda discovers she has some very special powers.
“There is a kind of magic in you.”
