Looking for a fun adventure that would be also work for a book report? Try the Doctor Dolittle books by Hugh Lofting. In The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle, readers meet Stubbins, a boy who becomes the doctor’s apprentice, and is also the narrator of the story. Dolittle is the world’s first environmentalist, and first animal-advocate. In his travels he repeatedly makes choices that are for the good of the environment and the animals. His home in Puddleby-on-the-Marsh in England is an animal sanctuary. The stories are enjoyable and fascinating. Kids will surely envy Stubbins who is lucky enough to share the journey with the good doctor.
