    So far, I am enjoying the book “Matilda” because Matilda is very interesting and is always doing something new. How about you guys?

    Why is Matilda so smart if her parents are so dumb?

    T-T: In “The Report Card,” there was a smart girl, too.

    T-S: My dad is a sales person just like Mr. Wormwood.

    T-S I’ve had really tasty cake before. :-)

    Why doesn’t Roald Dahl put a period after Mr., Ms., and Mrs.?

    I am suprised that Bruce ate a huge chocolate cake without barfing all over the place.If you were in Bruce’s situation would you have eaten the cake? Do you think Bruce will get sick? :)

    My 3 questions are…

    Why is Matilda’S parents so mean?
    I think because they do not care about her.

    How can Matilda read so fast?
    I think because she was born to read fast.

    Is Matilda going to move up a grade?
    I think she is because she knows like alot of math and reading.

    My personal reaction is…

    I think that Matilda is going to get magic powers and become famous. I think that because like how do you read that fast and only so young?

    If i could be Matilda I do not think I could stand living like that. I would live with one of my friends if I could. Would you?

    In my opinion I think this book is so awsome just like Matilda’s pranks. But I still don’t want to meet Miss Trunchbull. I would really want to meet Matilda,Lavender, and Miss Honey because they sound like nice people.

    eliar-Yes, I would eat it. And, no, I don’t think Bruce will get sick.
