Doctor Dolittle's Garden by Hugh Lofting

Doctor Dolittle's Garden by Hugh Lofting

"Doctor Dolittle's Garden follows Lofting's Doctor Dolittle's Zoo. Tommy Stubbins, Dolittle's assistant, reports on Professor Quetch, curator of the Dog Museum. Meanwhile, the doctor has learned insect languages and hears ancient tales of a giant race of insects. Fascinated, the doctor plans a voyage to find them- but before he does so, one arrives in his garden"
