Anyone feel like the ending turned out to be a dark twist on Matilda?

All the way through I thought Daisy was one twisted kid. I mean I know kids can be cruel but I just thought she was a little too cocky. I don't think she thought it all out herself. I think the teacher gave her some ideas of what to do. But when I finished the book I thought she is going to have problems with her when she gets older. What happens when she thinks the teacher isn't being fair. "I don't like you anymore. I want another mummy." She's done it once, what's to say she wouldn't do it again. Trade her mummy in for a better one. I certainly didn't feel sorry for Barry, Sharon or Daisy in this story. The only one I felt was the true victim I felt sorry for was Leo. But in all, as a story, it was brilliant!!(less)
