Roald Dahl : Matilda (Colour Edition) before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Matilda (Colour Edition):

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. A classic that does not lose gasBy M. T. CrenshawMatilda is a modern tale that has many elements of the old folk European stories, with angelical people and evil people that you immediately love and hate, and air of defiance of the adults world that hooks up children. What separates Matilda from old fairy tales is that, despite the character being a female heroine, the story does not want to turn it into a princess or into a girlfriend or into a male character's attachment. Matilda is brilliant because she is an individual and knows what she wants. The books speaks about the importance of family values and being brought up properly, and on the the importance of your willpower and education to overcome any struggle and become your best self.The book reads effortlessly and fast, and it is truly enjoyable. A classic of the children literature.I like 's illustrations style but, I don't resonate with his images in this book, perhaps because I imagine Matilda being very different from what is drawn, and somewhat the rest does not fit in my mind as "what should be".2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Volume variability ruined itBy RachelGreat story, poor audio book. Kate Winslet does amazing accents and the story is wonderful but the volume varies from extremely loud to extremely soft. I fought with the volume knob throughout the whole thing. Not great if you're trying to entertain a big kid in the car while letting a baby nap...2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Matilda a delightBy Peggy S.MATILDA by Roald DahlRoald Dahl never ceases to amaze me. I adore his diversity along with his sweet way of making his fans and readers sincerely care what happens with his many characters: i.e. "Charlie Bucket", "Sophie" and now our heroine, MATILDA!Matilda is probably Dahl's finest creations. She is not only a sweetie but quite the genius with a heart to match. Dahl has been accused of hating children, due to his stories that involve many shenanigans that revolve around children and a their demise. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, , and even Matilda. All these stories center around adults despising children.Matilda Wormwood is a little girl that is neglected and treated badly by her asinine parents because of her intelligence. She has taught herself how to read and even finds her own way to the library. Matilda's passion is overwhelming when it comes to books. Matilda develops telekinetic powers and uses them in the most ingenious, resourceful and cute ways. Especially on her mean old Principal, .However, her teacher, Miss Honey is a soft spoken, sweet as honey teacher who loves being around children and teaching with bright colors, cute little ditty's, and dances. Matilda's dysfunctional life at home is ludicrous and certainly shows Dahl's grim outlook of children but drives out some of the best stories ever written. By the time Matilda enters school, the little darling has read the old classics from Jules Vern and . Matilda is a very well-rounded and cultured little girl, who dwells in the most horrible of circumstances and living conditions. She is truly a hero by every sense of the word: HERO. She will warm your heart and keep you smiling as you turn the pages.The book is beautiful as the words inside. A must have for Dahl fans or readers that just enjoy a delightful reading excursion into another world, a world of Dahl.

Roald Dahl's much-loved Matilda, now in a stunning large paperback format with Quentin Blake's original illustrations in full colour. Matilda Wormwood's father thinks she's a little scab. Matilda's mother spends all afternoon playing bingo. And Matilda's headmistress Miss Trunchbull? Well, she's the worst of all. She is a big bully, who thinks all her pupils are rotten and locks them in the dreaded Chokey. As for Matilda, she's an extraordinary little girl with a magical mind - and now she's had enough. So all these grown-ups had better watch out, because Matilda is going to teach them a lesson they'll never forget. Matilda is also a phenomenally successful, award-winning London stage musical, adapted for the stage by Dennis Kelly with music by Tim Minchin. 'A true genius . . . Roald Dahl is my hero' - David Walliams Listen to MATILDA and other Roald Dahl audiobooks read by some very famous voices, including Kate Winslet, David Walliams and Steven Fry - plus there are added squelchy soundeffects from Pinewood Studios! Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! inspired by the revolting Twits.

.com Matilda is a little girl who is far too good to be true. At age five-and-a-half she's knocking off double-digit multiplication problems and blitz-reading Dickens. Even more remarkably, her classmates love her even though she's a super-nerd and the teacher's pet. But everything is not perfect in Matilda's world. For starters she has two of the most idiotic, self-centered parents who ever lived. Then there's the large, busty nightmare of a school principal, Mrs. ("The") Trunchbull, a former hammer-throwing champion who flings children at will and is approximately as sympathetic as a bulldozer. Fortunately for Matilda, she has the inner resources to deal with such annoyances: astonishing intelligence, saintly patience, and an innate predilection for revenge. She warms up with some practical jokes aimed at her hapless parents, but the true test comes when she rallies in defense of her teacher, the sweet Miss Honey, against the diabolical Trunchbull. There is never any doubt that Matilda will carry the day. Even so, this wonderful story is far from predictable--the big surprise comes when Matilda discovers a new, mysterious facet of her mental dexterity. Roald Dahl, while keeping the plot moving imaginatively, also has an unerring ear for emotional truth. The reader cares about Matilda because in addition to all her other gifts, she has real feelings. (Ages 9 to 12)From Publishers WeeklyMatilda is an extraordinarily gifted four-year-old whose parentsa crass, dishonest used-car dealer and a self-centered, blowsy bingo addictregard her as "nothing more than a scab." Life with her beastly parents is bearable only because Matilda teaches herself to read, finds the public library, and discovers literature. Also, Matilda loves using her lively intelligence to perpetrate daring acts of revenge on her father. This pastime she further develops when she enrolls in Crunchem Hall Primary School, whose headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, is "a fierce tyrannical monster . . . ." Adults may cringe at Dahl's excesses in describing the cruel Miss Trunchbull, as well as his reliance on overextended characterization at the expense of plot development. Children, however, with their keenly developed sense of justice, will relish the absolutes of stupidity, greed, evil and might versus intelligence, courage and goodness. They also will sail happily through the contrived, implausible ending. Dahl's phenomenal popularity among children speaks for his breathless storytelling charms; his fans won't be disappointed by Matilda. Blake's droll pen-and- ink sketches extend the exaggerated humor. Ages 9-11. Copyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc.From School Library JournalGrade 4-6 Dahl's latest piece of madcap mayhem is a story filled with the elements that his fans cravesardonic humor, the evilest of villians, the most virtuous of heroines, and children who eventually defeat those big bad grown-ups. In this book, Matilda isn't just smart, she is ``extra-ordinary. . .sensitive and brilliant,'' reading as a four year old. Unfortunately, her TV-addict parents neither recognize nor appreciate their daughter's genius. Neglected Matilda finds mentors in librarian Mrs. Phelps and teacher Miss Honey, a woman as sweet as her name implies. Miss Honey, Matilda, and other students are tormented by the child-hating headmistress Trunchbull. Trunchbull has also cheated orphaned niece Miss Honey out of her rightful inheritance, leaving the teacher in extreme poverty. Having practiced revenge techniques on her father, Matilda now applies her untapped mental powers to rid the school of Trunchbull and restore Miss Honey's financial security. If the conclusion is a bit too rapid, the transitions between Matilda's home and school life a bit choppy, and the writing style not as even as in some of Dahl's earlier titles, young readers won't mind. Dahl has written another fun and funny book with a child's perspective on an adult world. As usual, Blake's comical sketches are the perfect complement to the satirical humor. This may not be a teacher's or principal's first choice as a classroom read-aloud, but children will be waiting in line to read it.
