Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical Graphic

Matilda is one of storyteller Roald Dahl’s most beloved characters: an extraordinary girl with impressive wit, intelligence and telekinetic abilities. School becomes an escape from her unloving parents as Matilda quickly wins over her sweet teacher, Miss Honey. Together, they dare to take a stand to change their destinies. But are they any match for the brutal headmistress, Miss Trunchbull?
