Dr. John Dolittle is an esteemed physician, but he finds himself drawn to animal patients more often than humans. In this book, his animal companions convince him to go on a daring voyage around the world to search for a missing friend. Their travels take them through storms and shipwrecks, to bullfighting rings and into courtrooms where animals testify as witnesses. All the while, Dr. Dolittle uses his incredible talent of animal communication to befriend and protect any animal he meets.

John Dolittle fa il medico, ma la sua vera passione è il mondo degli animali. Quando smette di curare gli uomini della cittadina inglese di Puddleby per diventare veterinario, il suo pappagallo Polinesia lo introduce ai linguaggi delle varie specie e Dolittle impara presto a conversare con tutti gli animali che cura, e con i molti con cui vive: Polinesia naturalmente, ma anche l'anatra e governante Dab-Dab, il cane Jip, il maialino Gub-Gub e la civetta Tu-Tu.
