Matilda Wormwood is a gifted girl with unpleasant parents. From a young age she can speak like an adult. Since her parents don’t pay much attention to her, Matilda teaches herself to read. Before she has even been to elementary school, she has already read many books in the local library. She spends her afternoons at the library where a friendly librarian helps Matilda choose classic novels. Matilda’s parents think she should read less and watch more television.
