Doctor John Dolittle is the central character of a series of children's books by Hugh Lofting starting in 1920 with, "The Story of Doctor Dolittle." He is a doctor who shuns human patients in favour of animals, with whom he can speak in their own languages. He later becomes a naturalist, using his abilities to speak with animals to better understand nature and the history of the world.
This edition of the book contains 24 original illustrations, rejuvenated. Three are in full-color.
"The Voyages of Dr. Dolittle" picks up where "The Story...." left off. Bored with England, Dr. Dolittle seeks new lands, people and most importantly, animals. With a new helper and the reappearance of Bumpo, Chee-Chee, Jip and others, "The Voyages" is adventures on the high sea, new land, people, and animals. Dr. Dolittle is even crowned King, but you'll have to read it, or read it to your child to see how THAT happened.
