Whenever I think of lies, Matilda comes first to mind. I loved this poem with the glee only 8 year olds can have about characters meeting a dreadful end! So I memorised it and performed it as often as anyone would let me. 😂 My poor parents!
I hope it‘s not too tiny to read!
Cinfhen I‘m impressed if you memorized all that at 8 🙌🏻💕 7y
Centique @Cinfhen might have been a bit older when I memorised it but I was certainly painful to listen to 😜 7y
BarbaraBB What a fantastic poem and how impressive that you memorized it. Roald Dahl is the best! 7y

Reggie That ending....I think would have terrified me as a kid. I‘m impressed you memorized it. 7y
Centique @BarbaraBB thanks! It‘s actually by Hillaire Belloc. My mother had his books and no Roald Dahl at all. I didn‘t read Dahl‘s Matilda until this year but I loved it! 7y
Centique @Reggie that‘s so interesting! And look at you now reading the really scary stuff and me being a scaredy cat! 😂🤣 I always liked memorising poems in case there was an emergency and I was suddenly needed on stage or something. Ridiculous child! 😜 7y
BarbaraBB Oh really? I read Matilda and thought this poem would be by Dahl as well. Still great though! 7y
