Matilda is a very gifted child who is completely misunderstood and mistreated by her parents. She learns to survive in her environment by teaching herself to read and then finding comfort in books. When she goes to school she is faced with a very mean Head Teacher, Miss Trunchbull. Because Matilda is so smart she is able to outsmart Miss Trunchbull.
Heroes are usually characters with extraordinary strength. Gifted children will enjoy reading a book where the heroine uses her smarts to defeat the villain.
