Some hope for humanity.
Children's character Matilda has been portrayed as a statue sizing up to US president Donald Drumpf to celebrate the book's 30th anniversary. The figures at the Roald Dahl Museum in Buckinghamshire were created as part of a "reimagining" of the schoolgirl, three decades on.
Matilda stood up to headmistress Miss Trunchbull in the 1988 book. Drumpf was the public's top choice for the heroine's modern-day nemesis, the Roald Dahl Story Company said. Drumpf topped a public poll about what Matilda's life would be like now, including who she would be standing up to, with Prime Minister Theresa May coming second and TV presenter Piers Morgan in third.
