I love Matilda. Probably one of Dahl's best stories that will never date and will be enjoyed by children and adults alike forever. Thank you NetGalley and Penguin Random House UK Children's for putting a massive smile on my face today.

OMG, how can Matilda be 30?! What a delight it is to revisit this childhood favourite, now with gorgeous and varied covers that show Quentin Blake's Matilda in a variety of occupations: head of the British Library (my fave), as an astrophysicist, and as a mountaineer/traveller.

The text is the original, still funny, still outrageous, and still has us cheering on Matilda against The Trunchbull! This would make an ideal Christmas present for kids - but really I'd just want to keep this for myself!
