Does any body know the title of the book written by Roald Dahl - it's about him as a boy spending a vacation with his family in Greece. He has a pet turtle named Achiles( coz it bites people in the ankles)
I was in 7th. grade when I read this book and I'm trying to find it for my kids to read in the future. He may be a British author.
Any guesses?

"The Boy Who Talks With Aniimals" doesn't take place in Greece; the boy is on a Caribbean island. He disappears with a giant turtle. It was not his pet.

That's "The Boy Who Talked With Animals" from Roald Dahl's "The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar."

The Boy Who Talked With Animals. It's one of the stories in Roald Dahl's "The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Six More" book.
Take care.

Have you tried Boy... This is an autobiography of his earlier years.

This may be it...or it may be the book's sequel.
