Hugh Lofting

The Story of Doctor Dolittle is the first novel in a series about an eccentric but kind-hearted doctor who can talk to animals. Published in 1920, this children's book has become a classic of world literature.

The story follows Dr. John Dolittle, a doctor from the village of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh, who gives up treating people because his patients don't like the animals that constantly visit his house.

After learning to speak the languages ​​of animals with the help of his clever parrot Polynesia, Dolittle becomes a veterinarian and soon gains fame as a doctor of all kinds of animals. When news arrives from Africa that monkeys are suffering from an unknown disease, Dolittle sets off on a long journey to help them. During his adventure, he meets pirate kings, exotic animals, rescues prisoners and proves his courage and selflessness.

Through his adventures, the book promotes values ​​such as love for nature, friendship, respect for all living things and the courage to follow one's calling, regardless of convention. Dolittle is a symbol of kindness, curiosity and tolerance, and his ability to communicate with animals provides readers with a magical escape into the world of imagination.
