If you're not familiar with this timeless classic, it is about Doctor Dolittle; who having trouble making a living as a regular doctor and not enjoying being a people doctor as much as he would like, he decides to take his parrot Polynesia's advice and become an animal doctor. Polynesia, the parrot, explains to Doctor Dolittle that there are no good animal doctors because the vets can't communicate with the animals and when Doctor Dolittle complains that neither can he, Polynesia helps him learn animal talk. Once he learns how to speak to the animals, he enjoys being an animal doctor very much and that is where the adventure begins. Please understand that this classic novel was written over 100 years ago and although some parts may be considered controversial in today's world, Kevin Hayes The Story-Man does not change anything in this classic novel.
