Book Reviews of The Voyages of Doctor Doolittle (Signet Classics)

Book Review: My Friend the Doctor
Summary: 5 Stars

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.
