The Voyages of Dr. Dolittle,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Voyages of Dr. Dolittle (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition) (Signet Classics (Pb)) (School & Library Binding)
The Voyages of Dr. Dolittle is the story of a young apprentice of the great animal specialist Dr. Dolittle. Billy was just delivering meat for the Dr's pets while he was away and was so interested that he just had to find out everything that the Dr. knew. Dr. Dolittle agreed to teach him and Billy was very glad that he did.Dr. Dolittle took voyages to places that he had never been and on this voyage Billy gets to go. They are going to try and find the floating island, which is always moving. But on the way they get hit by a terrible storm and the boat gets demolished. They then find their way to the island by floating on pieces of the boat. This book is the most interesting book that I have ever read. It has creatures that you only see in your dreams and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys animals.

An interesting read--and very much of its own time. This is the source and root of the musical you loved as a child. Be forewarned that the racist views of Colonial England are well in tact, so read ahead before putting your little ones to bed with this otherwise charming book.
