Especially if it is an epic sea voyage, around the world, to places unknown (at least, unknown to Tommy), and with no particular itinerary. And amazing it is – any trip with an animal doctor who speaks animal languages is bound to be pretty cool. Dolittle, who has been introduced to readers in a previous book (which I have not read), goes on an epic sea voyage, taking along the narrator, young Tommy Stubbins who is reminiscing about the whole amazing trip.
