Parent Verdict
Roald Dahl's dark comedy means adults are cartoonishly cruel to children — Miss Trunchbull throws kids by their pigtails, force-feeds cake, and locks them in the spiked 'Chokey.' It's played for laughs and kids usually love the empowerment fantasy, but very sensitive children may find Trunchbull frightening. Good for ages 7 and up.
