" Poor Doctor Dolittle (of the little town of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh) has lost all his clients due to his assiduous care of his furry, feathery, and scaly friends. Without clients he has no means of support -- oh, what to do? Polynesia the Parrot steps in with a solution -- animal speech lessons! But terrific as this is, it opens the door to more trouble and some far-flung adventures. "
