Some of the characters included Matilda who is the main character, Grandfather,Qwen (a homeless little girl), Mother, Doctors, Eliza (Matilda's maid),the Corbet's, and some robber's.
Some of the setting's included Matilda, Grandfather, and Mother's house, The side of the road, a little stream, The "hospital", and Eliza's brother's apartment.
One of my conections in this book was that when Matilda's Grandfather died Matilda cried for day's and I know if I herd that a loved one died I would cry for a long time to.
One of my prediction's was that when Matilda finally found Mother after like 20 year's I predicted that she would be so much more than happy because I know if I had Just found someone after a long time I would run to them and jump in there arms.
I liked the authors style of writing because when Matilda or someone was thinking the words were in italics and when someone was mad or angry the words were bold.
