Matilda
From the bestselling author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The BFG! Now a musical on Broadway and streaming on Netflix! Matilda is a sweet, exceptional young girl, but her parents think she's just a nuisance. She expects school to be different but there she has to face Miss Trunchbull, a kid-hating terror of a headmistress. When Matilda is attacked by the Trunchbull she suddenly discovers she has a remarkable power with which to fight back. It'll take a superhuman genius to give Miss Trunchbull what she deserves and Matilda may be just the one to do it! "Matilda will surely go straight to children's hearts." --The New York Times Book Review Cover may vary.

Read for The Reading Rush Challenge: Read a Book that Inspired a Movie You've Seen
I have not read this book since I was in elementary school and I think, it's a case where the movie really adds a lot to the story. Was fun to read again and listen to in spurts (Kate Winslet narrates it and does a lovely job).
