I guess it was cute, but wow, bad messaging. Don't be a Mr Hoppy.
Went to bed listening to this.
Remembered it when I was young and owned the book.
Forgot how cute it was. Only took about half an hour.
Loved it.

Yet another enjoyable book. Esio Trot was an attractive word until the meaning was explained in the book :)
Am happy for Hoppy ... and Mrs Silver and Alfie in this book. Always like a book with happy endings.

Cute story if you ignore some of the questionable things going on in the book.

Whilst I enjoyed this book, I’m slightly put off by the fact that he got rid her tortoise that she’d had for many years. :-/ I mean come on. That’s mean.
You can't beat Roald Dahl for a weird, wonderful, some what sinister slice of reading magic. This sweet little tale is somewhat out of character. But no less brilliant. Quentin Blake's wacky & slightly demented illustrations (as always) are the perfect accompaniment. Love it!

this used to be a favourite of mine from my childhood but re-reading it was such a mistake. it’s cruel and irresponsible and yeah, i know it’s just a children’s book but christ, it does not leave a good impression.
