MATILDA IS A SWEET, 5-YEAR-OLD GENIUS with horrible, mean parents. Fortunately, she has a great time giving them what they deserve. But at school things are different. At school there's Miss Trunchbull: two hundred pounds of kid-hating headmistress. Giving Miss Trunchbull what she deserves will take more than a genius...it will take a superhuman genius!

Work Description

No podemos resistirnos a Matilda y recomendar a su autor a los niños que no lo conozcan. Matilda debe poner orden en una escuela poco acogedora porque sus profesores no están a la altura de su profesión. Pero el humor, la ironía y también la ternura harán que la escuela termine siendo un lugar amable donde ayuden a los niños a crecer y a leer. Roald Dahl decía que todos los niños tenían una brasa y que alguien debe encender el fuego y mantenerlo encendido. La escuela tiene este papel que cumplir porque de ello depende la luz del mundo.
