The Story of Doctor Dolittle (version 2) Hugh Lofting This is the original book about the amazing Dr. Dolittle who "Besides the gold-fish in the pond at the bottom of his garden, he had rabbits in the pantry, white mice in his piano, a squirrel in the linen closet and a hedgehog in the cellar." In it, the kind hearted dreamer learns he likes animals better than humans; is introduced to animal speech by his parrot, Polynesea; becomes very poor; travels to Africa and has many adventures with his animal friends. And they are indeed friends. Library of the World's Best Literature, Ancient and Modern volume 2 by Various Loyal Books The “Library of the World’s Best Literature, Ancient and Modern”, is a work of enormous proportions.

Besides the selection and translation of a huge number of poems, letters, short stories and sections of books, the collection offers, before each chapter, a short essay about the author or subject in question.

The result is a collection that holds the interest, for the variety of subjects and forms, but also as a means of first contact with such famous and imp Library of the World's Best Literature, Ancient and Modern, volume 6 by Various Loyal Books The Library of the World's Best Literature, Ancient and Modern, is a work of enormous proportions.
