Matilda (изд. 2013 г. )

A true genius... Roald Dahl is my hero - David Walliams Phizz-whizzing new branding for the world`s No.1 storyteller, Roald Dahl! Exciting, bold and instantly recognisable with Quentin Blake`s inimitable artwork. Matilda`s parents have called her some terrible things, but the truth is she`s a genius and they`re the stupid ones. Underestimating Matilda proves to be a big mistake as they, along with her spiteful headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, discover when Matilda uses her very special power to get the better of them. Roald Dahl, the best-loved of children`s writers, was born in Wales of Norwegian parents. After school in England he went to work for Shell in Africa. He began to write after a monumental bash on the head, sustained as an RAF pilot in World War II. Roald Dahl died in 1990. Quentin Blake is one of the best-known and best-loved children`s illustrators and it`s impossible now to think of Roald Dahl`s writings without imagining Quentin Blake`s illustrations.
