Mr Hopper is desperately in love with his neighbour Mrs Silver who spends all her time doting on her pet tortoise Alfie. When Mrs Silver says she desperately wants to see Alfie grow bigger, Mr Hopper is determined to make it happen. I generally don't really like Roald Dahl's books. They just don't grab me, for all I do like Quentin Blake's illustrations. But this was a surprising read. It wasn't the best thing ever, but it was a funny little love story and I was amused reading it. It's a short book but one of his better ones. 3.5 stars, rounded down to 3 stars. Essentially, this story is quite immoral. An old man is far too shy to ask the widow next door to marry him, so instead he attempts to win her love through lies, trickery and lots and lots of tortoises (tortoi? Tortie?). He succeeds, and they get married. Still, a clever and charming little children's story, and Roald Dahl is worth a read no matter what age you are. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
