Esio Trot by Roald Dahl
5.0

It is a funny little story of a man wanting to catch the attention of a lady. So he decided to help her in her dream of getting her turtle to grow in size.
A very clever way it was, and they lived happily ever after.
Can't stop thinking about what are we teaching the children in this story?
To lie and manipulate others to get what they want?
I think it is better to make it simple and just think of how the story is a funny one and how clever Mr. Hoppy was and naive Mrs silver was. Enjoyed it.
