Matilda was 4 when she learnt to read. Her mum and dad hated books and her brother Michael liked tv. So did the mum and dad. Everyday, the dad went to do his cheating people in cars and the mum went to play bingo. Michael went to school. Matilda was left all alone. So one day she went to the library and the librarian said "where’s your mum and dad?" and they became friends.
The next thing that happens is she goes to school and meets Miss Honey and Lavender and she was reallly, really good at maths and Miss Honey told the headmistress,called Mrs Torchball, that she should go into her class. Mrs Torchball locks people in the chokey, which is a cupboard with spikes on every wall. She is a bad headmistress.
Matilda gets really angry with Miss Torchball and discovers a magic power in her eyes. She uses that to frighten Miss Torchball away forever. Miss Honey get to live in the big red house which had been hers before Miss Torchball killed her father and stole it. Matilda gets to live with Miss Honey.
I loved this because it was very magic and i love magic. I thought Matilda was really brave and the story was really exciting.
THE END.
