I received this advanced title through Edelweiss with permission from Viking Children's Books. This reprint features art so beautiful, I could frame it. I highly recommend checking out this edition of the novel.

Esta vez, lo que realmente captó mi atención era el tema de lo increíble, para bien o para mal. Por ejemplo: nadie va a creer que la señora trunchbull vaya tirando a sus alumnos de las ventanas, ni que Matilda pueda mover las cosas con sus ojos. Primero, hay que creer el mal increíble del mundo y luego, luchar en contra de él con su propio poder de hacer cosas increíbles. Si ellos pueden hacer cosas así, nosotros también lo podemos!

Qué refrescante volver a este libro que me encantaba de jovencita! :,)))))

Matilda and Miss Honey are some of my favorite literary characters. I did modify some of the language for Eliana but we loved this book.

Eliana’s review: “The mom was good, but I don’t like the dad. My favorite was when Ms Trunchbull got taught a lesson.”
