      I don't like when her dad says that books are nothing, then he starts RIPPING the library book like it's an old rusty car that he stole! He steals auto parts and then he sells them for a fortune! But I can't believe that Matilda had that cool super power!!!! I like how she didn't tell her friend with the glasses, she is very private! I love this movie!!!
