I'm pretty sure the article is mistaken about the turtle being also-known-as Esio Trot. The phrase was used in the book solely as a magical incantation Poppy suggested to Silver to get her turtle to grow.

ESIO TROT is TORT OISE spelled backwards. Saxophobia 16:53, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Original story?

This may have been based upon a story from R.W. Wood, who reportedly pulled a tortoise-swapping trick on his neighbor. It's mentioned at http://redteamjournal.com/2012/08/see-it-like-jones-would-acclimatization-by-slow-change/, cited as "Jones, Most Secret War, p. 234". --Bobbozzo (talk) 23:12, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
