The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle by Hugh Lofting
This is a book about a chubby little man named Dr. Dolittle who can talk to animals, birds and a few kinds of fish. In this book he goes on sea voyages with his Parot Polynesia, becomes the king of an Indian Island and rides in the glass shell of a giant sea snail. (Say that 10 times fast!) I like it when he tries to learn the language of the shell fish, the one language he can't understand and is very frusterated with.
I give this book 10 out of 10 stars. Two thumbs way up.

We read this book as a family, then mary had to go back and read it again, and she continued to read others in the series. We love it too!
