The Story of Doctor Dolittle (1920) is a childrens fantasy novel by Hugh Lofting. The novel is the first in a series of fifteen books featuring Doctor Dolittle, a character created by Lofting in letters written to his wife and children at home while he served in the Great War. Beloved by generations of adults and children for their imaginative and moral worldview, Loftings books have inspired numerous adaptations for theater, film, and television. Doctor John Dolittle is an ordinary physician with an extraordinary gift. Struggling to maintain his clinic, which he runs at the house of his older sister, Dolittle turns his attention to caring for his vast collection of animals from around the world. When his parrot Polynesia teaches him how to speak with animals, however, his dwindling fortunes are reversed, and Dolittle establishes a successful veterinary clinic. As word of his skill reaches others, he is recruited for a voyage to Africa, where help is needed in order to cure an epidemic ravaging the monkey population. When a shipwreck leaves him stranded in a hostile kingdom, however, Doctor Dolittle needs the help of the very monkeys he has come to save in order to escape the clutches of Jolliginkis king. Featuring pirates, crocodiles, and a magical creature known as a pushmi-pullyu, The Story of Doctor Dolittle is a delightful work of fantasy for children and adults alike. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Hugh Loftings The Story of Doctor Dolittle is a classic of English childrens fiction reimagined for modern readers.
