A review by reader_for_the_dead
Esio Trot by Roald Dahl

4.0

Swaroop's comment reminded me how nostalgic this book is. When I was in Grade 2, which was eons ago, my library teacher would read Esio Trot to us in a dramatic, West-End tier performance voice and we would squeal with excitement. It's actually a sweet story, since you seldom read about an older couple finding love. Especially when a turtle is the plot device

In short: bumping this up to 4 stars because of nostalgia. Why? Because I can.
