My word of the day- Perilous



 

Matilda's Summary Chapter 2

 Matilda’s Father, Mr. Harry Wormwood was a short man with a short mustache, he was described as a short ratty man with enormous teeth underneath his super-thin, ratty mustache. 

Matilda’s mother, Mrs. Wormwood on the other hand was quite the opposite of Mr. Wormwood. She was a large woman with light blond hair, who wore very heavy makeup and clothes that looked too tight to even fit anyone. 


Mr. Wormwood was a car dealer, He fits into the stereotype of what a car dealer is because he uses very dishonest ways, he would sell a car that no one would want if they knew the variety(truth), for example, he would use sawdust to make the car temporarily run smoother, another thing he would do is he would rewind the speedometer to 150,000 miles so it would look as if it wasn’t 10,000 miles. 

As Mr. Wormwood declared, “Every single car that comes through my hands gets the treatment...They all have their length cut to under ten thou before they're offered for sale.”
