This is a really good book! I live how it's all about girl power and inspiring girls to be scientists! But also I found Matilda's adventures fun and imaginative! I just really enjoyed the book!

I love this book because it is full of adventure. My favourite character is Matilda because she loves inventing and is determined to get the noble prize to her grandma and not to someone who stole her idea. Can they tell everyone the truth before it's too late?

I find it so funny like what could be more funny the an old lady in a laundry basket and your mum and dad, loves having a nice and tidy and clean car, driving in a van that looks like a dog.

I loved this book! It's really good. The story is about a girl called Matilda, who, because she is a girl, does not get picked for a science competition. One day she finds out that her granny Joss discovered a planet but one of her work colleagues stole all her work. The story follows Matilda and Granny Joss to the Nobel Prize ceremony.

I think other children should read this book as it is full of adventure, it has lots of invention ideas, and shows what can really happen if you put your mind to it
