Brief Synopsis: (Taken from Goodreads) Doctor Dolittle, the veterinarian who can actually talk to animals, sets sail on the high seas for new adventures with Polynesia the parrot, Jip the dog, Chee-Chee the monkey, and young Tommy Stubbins. Together they travel to Spider Monkey Island, brave a shipwreck, and meet the incredible Great Glass Sea Snail.
My Review:
I give this book a 5 out of 5.
Narrated by Tommy Stubbins, Doctor Dolittle's apprentice, the reader is taken on a long voyage to find Long Arrow, a naturalist that Doctor Dolittle has always wanted to meet. Through mishap after mishap, they finally find Long Arrow and Doctor Dolittle finds himself king of Spider Monkey Island.
An excellent adventure, one the whole family will enjoy!
