• Matilda was a clever, little girl and in this chapter, Matilda makes a plan to punish her father by applying superglue to his hat.
• His father was not able to take off his hat the entire day at work and also had to cut parts of his hair to take the hat off.
• The chapter shows how clever Matilda was to take revenge.
