WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Matilda is a little girl who is far too good to be true. At age five-and-a-half she's knocking off double-digit multiplication problems and blitz-reading Dickens. Even more remarkably, her classmates love her even though she's a super-nerd and the teacher's pet. But everything is not perfect in Matilda's world...
For starters she has two of the most idiotic, self-centered parents who ever lived. Then there's the large, busty nightmare of a school principal, Miss ("The") Trunchbull, a former hammer-throwing champion who flings children at will, and is approximately as sympathetic as a bulldozer. Fortunately for Matilda, she has the inner resources to deal with such annoyances: astonishing intelligence, saintly patience, and an innate predilection for revenge.

Picked up from the book buffet. My landlady here in Tampere was asking after this book, so I'm taking it to her, but I doubt it will get journalled 🙄.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
I have completely forgotten to make the release note, but the book was left at my friend's, who gave me B&B during the Convention weekend. Thanks!
