Should I be upset at how educators and parents are portrayed? I didn't think so, until someone pointed out that I should, especially as an educator. But here's the thing: Matilda is a brilliant, cunning, child who succeeds in spite of some of the adults in her world, and because of others. There are redeeming adults in her life and the message is to rise above whatever your circumstances, even if your parents suck.

I love Matilda. She is everyone I wanted to be when I was little. The little girl in the movie is so cute :)
My rating would be a 3 but I’m not the target audience so not fair to rate lower

Such a cute book, especially for kids! I read it when I was about 10 and that is what actually got me into reading, I’ll always be grateful
