Matilda -- Roald Dahl, Paperback

From the bestselling author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The BFG

Matilda is a sweet, exceptional young girl, but her parents think she's just a nuisance. She expects school to be different but there she has to face Miss Trunchbull, a kid-hating terror of a headmistress. When Matilda is attacked by the Trunchbull she suddenly discovers she has a remarkable power with which to fight back. It'll take a superhuman genius to give Miss Trunchbull what she deserves and Matilda may be just the one to do it

Matilda will surely go straight to children's hearts. --The New York Times Book Review
