The Roald Dahl Treasury | |
Sitting in a hut at the bottom of his garden, surrounded by odd bits and pieces such as a suitcase (used as a footrest), his own hipbone (which he'd had replaced) and a heavy ball of metal foil (made from years' worth of chocolate wrappers), Roald Dahl wrote some of the world's best-loved stories including Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Twits, The Witches, The BFG, Fantastic Mr Fox, James and the Giant Peach and lots more.
Quentin Blake is one of Britain's most successful illustrators. He has illustrated nearly three hundred books and he was Roald Dahl's favourite illustrator. He has won many awards including the Whitbread Award and the Kate Greenaway Medal and taught for over twenty years at the Royal College of Art. In 1999 he became the first ever Children's Laureate and in 2013 he was knighted in the New Year's Honours.

I am a ten-year old girl and I thought The BFG was a great book. I loved how some of the chapters made me laugh out loud. It was a very creative book and I always looked forward to reading it. I've read many books and The BFG was definitely one of my favorites. I decided to read The BFG because I saw an advertisement on TV for the movie. I'm glad I did! I would definitely -and no question about it- recommend it to a friend!
Matilda is a modern tale that has many elements of the old folk European stories, with angelical vs evil people who you immediately love and hate, and an air of defiance of the adult world that hooks up children. What separates Matilda from old fairy tales is that, despite the character being a female heroine, the story doesn't want to turn her into a princess, into a girlfriend, or into a male character's attachment. Matilda is brilliant because she is an individual and knows what she wants.
The book speaks about the importance of family values and being brought up properly, and about the the importance of your willpower and education to overcome any struggle and become your best self. Also, you get in life whatever your intention and willpower put to it.
The book reads effortlessly and fast, and it is truly enjoyable. A classic of children literature, and very important to reinforce positive female roles in a world that wants to turn little girls into little empty dolls.
I like Quentin Blake's illustrations style but they don't resonate with me with regards to Matilda, perhaps because I imagine Matilda very different from the character we find drawn in the book. This is a personal preference of course.
Purchased in the Paperback version this copy of Matilda is written in British English with illustrations from one of the best, Quentin Blake. Matilda was never wanted. Her parents were too wrapped up in their own lives to care for another human being thus Matilda was left to her own devices at a very young age. Her mother played bingo every afternoon allowing Matilda time to read and pursue her own education. Her father was a definite crook, dealing in used cars, "fixing" them up and selling at a huge profit.
If you ever want to instill the love of reading in your child, then Matilda is a GREAT example as at the age of 4 she was already reading the classics by Dickens, Bronte, Kipling etc.
Increasingly angry at the treatment she was receiving from her parents she "decided that every time her father or mother were beastly to her, she would get her own back in some way or other. A small victory or two would help her tolerate their idiocies and would stop her from going crazy." Smile and laugh as she gets her own back!
What happens when Matilda is finally allowed to go to school? How will she fare against the formidable Trunchbull? What of her "magic" powers? The Chokey?! Thank goodness Miss Honey, her teacher, saw Matilda's potential.
This is truly a delightful and humorous story that should be in everyone's library. The illustrations are fantastic, in true Quentin Blake style. I would encourage everyone to read the book first BEFORE watching the movie. We purchased this book at full price. We were not required to write a review but chose to do so. Thanks, Liz
Although this is a FABULOUS book....my class and I didnt start reading it until this week and we realized today that 13 of the 22 books I purchased were defective! Starting at page 97, it skips 31 pages! Instead of 97-128, it has an extra set of pages 193 through the end. Because I didn't notice until after the 30 day return policy was up, there is nothing I can do.
