"All that I have written so far about Doctor Dolittle I heard long after it happened from those who had known him-- indeed a great deal of the happenings in The Story of Doctor Dolittle took place before I was born. But I now come to set down that part of the great man's life which I myself saw and took part in."

In this the second Dolittle book Tommy Stubbins becomes the Good Doctor's assistant and also learns to speak in the language of the animals form Polynesia. Thrill with all of your old friends and make a few new ones.

Hugh Lofting

Hugh Lofting was born in Maidenhead in 1886. He studied engineering in London and America and his work as a civil engineer took him all over the world. He interrupted his career to enlist in the army and fight in the First World War.

Wanting to shield his children from the horrors of combat, including the fate of horses on the battlefield, he wrote to them instead about a kindly doctor who could talk to animals.

After the war he settled with his family in Connecticut and it was from there that he published his Doctor Dolittle books. The Story of Doctor Dolittle was published in 1920, followed by twelve more in the series. The highly acclaimed author died in 1947.
