Matilda

by Roald Dahl

Matilda was one of my absolute favorite books when I was a child, and it still holds up reading it as an adult.  Matilda is a bookworm (surprise, surprise), trapped in a family of idiots (much like Harry Potter).  What better way to have fun and escape the drudgery than to develop superpowers to deal with bullies at home and at school? Dahl is the master of wickedly playful narrative, and Matilda is his masterpiece.
