MATILDA IN SCOTS

Matilda is the world's most extraordinary bookworm - no thanks to her ghastly parents, and her headmistress, who thinks all her pupils are rotten and locks them in the dreaded Chokey. Despite these beastly grownups trying to push her down, Matilda is an extraordinary girl with a magical mind. And she's had enough. A timely addition to the growing number of high-quality books available to children and young people to read in Scots.
