Her journey takes a sobering turn (↓) when she uncovers the dark truth of Miss Honey's tragic past and prepares to confront her teacher's abuser. Finally, Matilda's fortunes soar once more (↑) as she bravely writes a supernatural threat to oust Miss Trunchbull, restoring Miss Honey's stolen wealth and securing a loving, adoptive home.
