Book 1. The Story of Doctor Dolittle
You have, of course, heard of Doctor Dolittle! Yes, yes, that kind doctor who lives in the small town of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh and treats animals. The story of his amazing life and adventures was told...
exactly one hundred years ago by the English writer Hugh Lofting, and a little later it was translated into Russian by Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky.
However, grandfather Korney changed a lot in this story - he decided to leave some things unsaid and added some things of his own. Even the doctor himself is called differently by him - Aibolit.
The fairy tale you will read in this book is much more similar to the one that came from Lofting's pen. After all, its translator is now different - it is the modern children's writer and best friend of all animals Stanislav Vostokov.
Book 2. The Travels of Doctor Dolittle
The son of a simple shoemaker from Puddleby-on-the-Marsh, nine-year-old Tommy Stubbins could never have imagined that he would have the chance to become the assistant of Doctor Dolittle himself. However - what luck! - it happened just that way, and now the doctor not only teaches the boy to read and write - he reveals to him the secrets of nature, teaches him the languages of animals, and takes him on a dangerous and incredible adventure expedition to the jungles of South America, to the mysterious Island of the Coatis.
This fairy tale was published two years after the sensational "The Story of Doctor Dolittle" and brought the author one of the most prestigious awards in children's literature - the John Newbery Medal. In our book, the tale is published for the first time in the translation of the famous writer and naturalist Stanislav Vostokov.
For younger school-aged children.
