Adapted into a Tony Award-winning Broadway musical and a Netflix film!

From the bestselling author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The BFG comes the story of a girl with extraordinary abilities. 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
