Esio Trot

In Room 11 we are reading a WONDERFUL book called Esio Trot By Roald Dahl.

It is all about a tortoise, his owner Mrs Silver, and the man upstairs who loves her, Mr Hoppy.

Mr Hoppy gives Mrs Silver a spell to try and make Alfie the Tortoise grow.

Here is the spell:


ESIO TROT, ESIO TROT,
TEG REGGIB REGGIB!
EMOC NO, ESIO TROT,

WORG PU, FFUP PU, TOOHS PU! GNIRPS PU, WOLB PU, LLEWS PU!

EGROG! ELZZUG! FFUTS! PLUG! TUP NO TAF, ESIO TROT, TUP NO TAF!
TEG NO, TEG NO, ELBBOG DOOF!

Can you guess what it says??
