Here is the first adventure of everyone's favorite doctor, Doctor Dolittle. He lives a boring life in the sleepy little town, Puddleby-on-the-Marsh. But that all changes when a crocodile moves in and his parrot, Polynesia, takes it upon herself to teach the Good Doctor how to speak to animals. This edition contains over 50 of Lofting's orginal illustrations.
