Matilda Wormwood is a little girl with intense curiosity, a brilliant mind and a glorious imagination - and the worst parents in the world. As her parents waste themselves with trashy TV and dodgy money-making schemes, she loves to lose herself in the pages of her books and stories. Her beautiful teacher, Miss Honey, encourages Matilda and unleashes a torrent of fantastical tales and stories of the grandest adventures and characters never before heard of in the history of mankind! Initially excited to attend Crunchem Hall, Matilda is surprised to find the school is a morbid and oppressive place led by the horrible and treacherous Miss Trunchbull. Filled with the passion to overcome even the greatest obstacles, Matilda leads her army of revolting children to challenge Trunchbull and uncover dark secrets, expose the villains and set all the good folks free.
