The monkeys of Africa are sick. So Doctor Dolittle sails from home, bringing all of his animal friends--Dab-Dab the duck; Jip the dog; Gub-Gub the pig; Polynesia the parrot; and Too-Too the owl. Along the way they have many amazing adventures. They even meet the rarest of animals, the two-headed pushmi-pullyu! Based on Hugh Lofting's "The Story of Doctor Dolittle".
