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!

This translation into Scots is a timely addition to the growing number of high quality
books available to children and young people to read in the wonderfully rich and
expressive Scots language.
