A lot of emotions filled my heart when I watched the movie Matilda. First‚ I feel pity because you can see the faces of Matilda’s parents that they don’t want a daughter‚ seeing her also that she desperately want to have a book but her parents won’t give her a book and for having a very cruel parent. Second‚ I was amazed when I saw Matilda fix and feed herself independently‚ finished a lot of magazines and books in their house and in the public library‚ having a good sense of fashion at a very young

ROALD DAHL’S MATILDA MRS. PHELPS It’s a funny thing about mothers and fathers.

They become so blinded by adoration they manage to convince themselves their child has qualities of genius. Well‚ there is nothing very wrong with all this. It’s the way of the world. It s only when the parents begin telling us about the brilliance

Reaction Paper on “Matilda” “If you’re not having fun‚ you’re not learning”‚ this quote is taken form the movie “Matilda”. This is very meaningful to me because it is placed in the classroom of Miss Honey and it contradicts the school’s ambience of not being a conducive place (or even a fun place) learn. This of course is reinforced with the meanest principal on Earth‚ Miss Trunchbull‚ who is in fact hates children. I do agree with the quote because if you’re not having fun with what you are doing
