It is difficult to find words to describe this book. It is a work of literary beauty and still easily accessible to any child. We get engrossed with the protagonist (Matilda) and root for her all the way through. In an age when children are too busy on facebook, twitter or in front of the idiot box, this book could really inspire them to keep reading. This is, in one word, AWESOME.

Very nice book for teenage kids. My 11 y. old daughter finished it in just 1 day and I enjoyed the book too. Was happy also with delivery service, packaging and delivery time.

innocent book....i loved it
suitable book for young girls...by a gud writer ROALD dahl
matilda is must read book for everyone....i enjoyed it..

this is my first order from flipkart. this book is about a young girl of about 5 years and she can make wonders. everyone in the house bosses around her and never support her. Her parents don't encourage her in anything, especially her father. she hatches up a plan in order to punish her father. she then gets enrolled into a school and teaches a lesson to the evil headmaster miss trunchbull.
Make sure you don't miss out this book.

Cons:
The book is too short.
Illustrations are not up to the...
