I love animals and this book was absolutely great. This is my all time favorite and whats special about this book is that you can read it over and over and not get bored with it. This book shows an animals loyalty, trust and love to fellow human beings. Dr.Dolittle is special since he can converse with many of the animals on Earth. His adventures are humourous and sometimes quite dangerous. This book is very easy to read and I would recommend this book to ages above 8. The length of this book is kind of long but it has adventures that fill every single page of this book and keep you at the edge of your seat. This is a must read!!!
