by Hugh Lofting

Read a sample Read a sample

Doctor Dolittle loves animals. In fact, he loves animals so much that his cozy cottage in Puddleby-on-the-Marsh is bursting with pets: goldfish in the pond, rabbits in the pantry, white mice in the piano, a squirrel in the linen closet, a hedgehog in the cellar, not to mention a horse, chickens and pigeons, two lambs, and many others. But his favorite pets by far are Dab-Dab the duck, Jip the dog, Gub-Gub the baby pig, Polynesia the parrot, and Too-Too the owl. It's no wonder no human patients will visit the good doctor—it's too crowded!
But soon Doctor Dolittle's fame as an animal doctor spreads far and wide—all the way to Africa, where a village of sick monkeys needs Doctor Dolittle's help!
