Features: The Story of Dr. Dolittle is a highly popular and enduring series of children's stories that has flourished in Europe and America for nearly a century. The entire series revolves around the protagonist, Dr. Dolittle, and his group of animal friends. The author wrote 12 fairy tales centered on him. Dr. Dolittle was originally a doctor who treated humans, but due to his dislike for socializing, he switched careers to become an animal doctor. He was fluent in animal languages. Leveraging this unique skill, he accomplished many incredible feats. Despite being short and unremarkable in appearance, though highly knowledgeable, he preferred to stay away from the secular world. Yet, such an uninterested and socially inept little man, once he entered the nature he loved and joined his friends, seemed to transform instantly—full of enthusiasm and at ease, like a fish in water. He constantly demonstrated his extraordinary wisdom and his selfless spirit of helping the weak, as if all birds and beasts needed his care, and every flower, bird, fish, and insect was his equal in friendship.
