Rating:  Summary: Katy's Review Review: Have you ever wondered what it's like to have super powers in your eyes? Well, I just read the book Matlida by Roald Dahl. In this book there is a young girl named Matilda who has special powers in her eyes. These powers allow her to move and lift things with just the strength of her eyes.Matilda tells her teacher, Miss Honey, about these powers, and learns her teacher's whole life story. Matilda finds a way to use her powers to help Miss Honey and gets back what belongs to her. In this story, the feelings are so strong and emmotional. I think this story brings out a good lesson. I think the lesson is to treat others the way you want to be treated. Mrs.Trunchbull, the headmistress, was mean and hated kids. On the other hand, Miss Honey was nice and kind. I think this book is very fun for all ages. What will Matilda do for Miss Honey? Read the book to find out.
Rating:  Summary: A Great Children's Book Review: Oh wow! I really can't stop reading this book! The title of this book is Matilda, Roald Dahl. If you like adventure, believe in magic, and have maybe read other Roald Dahl books, then maybe you'll like this book as much as I do. This book is a little bit frightening. It's about a young girl, about six or five, and her name is Matilda. She is really smart and can make things move with her eyes! I like this book because the author of this book uses a lot of funny writing,and, there is lots of dialogue,too.So this is a good choice for you!

Rating:  Summary: Matilda Review: I find it hard to believe an acclaimed author would promote disrespect, mental abuse of children, physical abuse of children, revenge, and poor language. I found the book to provide a very NEGATIVE outlook on life and not the least bit entertaining.
Rating:  Summary: This will be my lifes book. Review: Hi my name is ... The title of this book is Matilda the author is Roald Dahl. The genre of this book is realistic fiction because it could have happened. The sittings of this book are at the public library and at school in 1988. What happens is that this little 4 year oldand 3 month old girl named Matilda. Does not have parents care for her. I like this book because in this story she shows respect to her olders and shows smartness. I would let any person over 6 years old. Something interesting is that she moves books, cables,and stuff like that. I mean as in she moves it with her eyepower. I mean we dont even have power to control stuff. If you want to check out this book look for the tittle Matilda the author of this book is Roald Dahl and this hasbeen Carmina Ortiz telling you about this story.
Rating:  Summary: One of my all time favourite books! Review: MY name is ALfatih Geusan Pananjung and am already a final year college student in Indonesia. When I was in England my teacher used to read this book in front of the class. It was one of the childrens favourites. I was in England for 5 and a 1/2 years and came back to my country in secondary school. I started remebering Matilda just lately because one of my friends whom I really care, Mathilda Petrina Zulfikar, (probabbly love) also has the same name. I bought her the book and she found it excellent too. The way Roald Dahl writes is definitley special. I just love him. Definitely a must for children
Rating:  Summary: Matilda Review: I am CMD, a fifth grade student at Waldron Mercy Academy. Matilda is a very bright and inelegant child. Her mother and father spoil her brother and could really care less about Matilda. Before Matilda becomes a school student she becomes aware of a power she has. She can move objects just by concentrating and moving her finger. When Matilda arrives at the school she will attend, Ms. Honey who will become one of Matilda's best friends greets her warmly. I think this book was a real page-turner. I would suggest reading the book and then watching the movie to compare the two.

Rating:  Summary: A must-read over and over and over...... Review: I remember being 10 or something like that and reading this book to the point of wearing down the binding. It's extremely inspirational for a young girl. Some, like Matilda, might feel alone in this big world, but if you have enough determination, there's nothing you're not capable of! Also, Ronald Dahl's writing style is great for kids ages 7 and up! It's easy to understand and engaging at the same time. I'm gonna go and watch the 'Matilda' movie for the 50th time. Good thing the movie captures the book pretty well or eles I would sue for ruining such a wonderful story! hehe
