Add your own magic to the story of Matilda with this sticker activity book based on Roald Dahl's beloved classic tale!
Readers of all ages have loved Roald Dahl's Matilda since it was first published in 1988. Matilda—a quietly brilliant five-year-old bookworm—discovers she has amazing magical abilities, and uses them to save her school from the tyranny of its terrible headmistress. This sticker and activity book is filled with drawing and coloring activities, and plenty of puzzles and games to help readers relive Matilda's wonderful story. Quentin Blake's classic illustrations and two sheets of fun stickers round out this extraordinary activity book.
Roald Dahl (1916–1990) was born in Llandaff, South Wales, and went to Repton School in England. His parents were Norwegian, so holidays were spent in Norway. As he explains in Boy, he turned down the idea of university in favor of a job that would take him to "a wonderful faraway place." In 1933 he joined the Shell Company, which sent him to Mombasa in East Africa. When World War II began in 1939, he became a fighter pilot and in 1942 was made assistant air attaché in Washington, where he started to write short stories. His first major success as a writer for children was in 1964. Thereafter his children's books brought him increasing popularity, and when he died, children mourned the world over, particularly in Britain where he had lived for many years.
