A true genius . . . Roald Dahl is my hero - David Walliams So Matilda's strong young mind continued to grow; nurtured by the voices of all those authors who had sent their books out into the world like ships on the sea. These books gave Matilda a hopeful and comforting message: You are not alone. Matilda is the world's most famous bookworm; no thanks to her ghastly parents. Her father thinks she's a little scab. Her mother spends all afternoon playing bingo. And her headmistress; Miss Trunchbull? She's the worst of all. She's a big bully; who thinks all her pupils are rotten and locks them in the dreaded Chokey. Despite these beastly grownups trying to push her down; Matilda is an extraordinary girl with a magical mind. And she's had enough. So all the terrible adults had better watch out; because she's going to teach them a lesson they'll never forget! Now you can listen to MATILDA and other Roald Dahl audiobooks read by some very famous voices; including Kate Winslet; David Walliams and Steven Fry - plus there are added squelchy soundeffects from Pinewood Studios!
