Esio Trot

An ancient spell, 140 tortoises, and little big of magic..

Mr. Hoppy is in love with his neighbor, Mrs. Silver; but she is in love with someone else-Alfie, her pet tortoise. With all her attention focused on Alfie, Mrs Silver doesn't even know, Mr. Hoppy is alive. And Mr Hoppy is too shy  to even ask Mrs. Silver over for tea.
