Ms. K. Smith / October 1, 2010

2 Matilda Theme: Stuck in a World of Bad Teachers and Criminal Parents Setting: The book setting takes place in England. Main Characters: Matilda, Mr. & Mrs. Wormwood, Miss Honey, and Miss Trunchbull Plot: "Matilda is a four-year-old genius stuck with a trashy, overbearing family. Using her superior intellect, she manages to get back at them a few times through very clever strategy. However, when she starts school, she is faced with her mortifying headmistress, the terrible Miss Trunchbull. Compared to two-hundred pounds of solid muscle, Matilda is at a serious disadvantage. Soon, both brains and brawn are put to the test in this crazy, thoughtful, delightful story by a classic author." Question: Why did Miss Honey adopt Matilda? Conclusion: In conclusion, Matilda parents moved away and Miss Honey adopted her. Miss Honey and Matilda stayed in the old Trunchbull’s House and lived happily ever after. Then Miss Honey became the principle at Matilda’s school.

3 Matilda I picked this book because I love to read stories about kids. It’s a interesting and funny book. I also enjoyed reading about the way Matilda grew up and later in the book she became really happy. While reading this book I learned that there are some bad parents in this world but somehow most kids find a way to make things better. I also learned that there are bad teachers in this world, but kids try their best to learn as much as possible. Reading, I also learned that no matter who you are, you can be the best that you can be.
