Esio Trot

Author: Roald Dahl

Esio Trot is a book about a small little tortoise that was owned by a kind lady known as Miss Silver. But the only problem was that Esio Trot or Alfie was too small. Ever since he was bought by Miss Silver. Do you know how this tortoise grew? Miss Silver's neighbour Mr Hoppy had emotions for this lady and wanted to do something useful inorder to impress her. So, he went back to his old engineering bench to make a claw to pick up the 13 ounce tortoise and swap it with another one which was heavier than the previous one.But before he swapped the tortoises, he had told her African rhyme in order for the tortoise to grow.I recommend this book to you all because it is funny and also has a good ending.
