No, that's too difficult . . . " 
"It's two hundred and sixty-six," Matilda said softly. Miss Honey stared at her. Then she picked up a pencil and quickly worked out the sum on a piece of paper. "What did you say it was?" she said, looking up. " Two hundred and sixth-six," Matilda said. Miss Honey put down her pencil and removed her spectacles and began to polish the lenses with a piece of tissue. The class remained quiet, watching her and waiting for what was coming next. Matilda was still standing up beside her desk." ]]> 2016-04-11 15:37:57 UTC https://padlet.com/2018melissa00/dwbet5afzmn8/wish/105101231 2018melissa00 https://padlet.com/2018melissa00/dwbet5afzmn8/wish/105101862 2016-04-11 15:39:53 UTC https://padlet.com/2018melissa00/dwbet5afzmn8/wish/105101862 2018melissa00 https://padlet.com/2018melissa00/dwbet5afzmn8/wish/105101927 Pg. 5 " By the time she was three, Matilda had taught herself to read by studying newspapers and magazines that lay around the house. At age four, she could read fast and well and she naturally began hankering after books."]]> 2016-04-11 15:40:08 UTC https://padlet.com/2018melissa00/dwbet5afzmn8/wish/105101927 2018melissa00 https://padlet.com/2018melissa00/dwbet5afzmn8/wish/105102333 Pg. 7 "From then on, every afternoon, as soon as her mother had left for bingo, Matilda would toddle down to the library. The walk took only ten minutes and this  allowed her two glorious hours sitting quietly by herself in a cosy corner devouring one book after another. When she had read every single children's book in the place, she started wandering round in search of something else."]]> 2016-04-11 15:41:17 UTC https://padlet.com/2018melissa00/dwbet5afzmn8/wish/105102333
