The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle
by Hugh Lofting
Doctor
Dolittle is a very busy man. He has already learned so many languages, but right now, he
is trying to learn the language of shellfish. It’s a difficult language to learn
because shellfish don’t talk much. Jip, his canine friend, and Dab-Dab the duck do
what they can to help. And of course, nine-and-a-half-year-old Tommy Stubbins does his
best.
