Book Review: The Story of Doctor Dolittle by Hugh Lofting (Family Read Aloud)

The Story of Doctor DolittleThe Story of Doctor Dolittle by Hugh Lofting

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Own.

We finished The Story of Doctor Dolittle this evening. It was a pleasant read aloud and we enjoyed the story.  Don’t know whether we’d read others in the series, or just let the children read them on their own. 

The story was of Dr. John Dolittle and his being taught to speak to the animals, caring for them, and adventuring with them. 

We didn’t talk much about the themes dealing with money, although we did talk a bit about being content with enough as it was expressed in the end.
