"Matilda, a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers, lives with cruel parents who find her to be a nuisance, a lousy little worm, and a bore. When Matilda enters her first term at school, she captures the attention of Miss Honey, a kind teacher, and the two form a wonderful friendship.

"Unfortunately , the school is ruled by a tempestuous and mean headmistress named Miss Trunchbull, who hates children and delivers cruel and un just punishments to all her charges.
