A stunning gift edition of the modern classic story Matilda , starring the iconic eponymous character, published to celebrate Puffin's 85th anniversary.

Celebrating 85 years of Sparking Imaginations

A beautiful clothbound edition of the much-loved modern classic Matilda. Bound in real cloth with two coloured foils and sprayed coloured edges, this deluxe edition is a perfect gift or collector's item. Part of an eight book set published to mark the 85^th anniversary of Puffin Books. With a brand-new foreword from Robin Stevens.

These books gave Matilda a hopeful and comforting message- you are not alone.

Matilda is a brilliant child with a magical mind.

But her parents have decided she's just a nuisance who wastes too much time on reading and stories.

And her headmistress Miss Trunchbull is a terrible bully, who thinks children are rotten and awful and should be locked up.

Now it's time for Matilda to find the power to change her story, and show them just how extraordinary children can be . . .
