The Adventures of Doctor Dolittle is a Helbling Red Series graded Reader at CEFR A1, adapted by Maria Cleary from Hugh Lofting's 1920 story. In about 64 pages, learners follow Doctor John Dolittle as Polynesia the parrot teaches him animal languages, then as he sails to Africa with Jip, Dab-Dab and Gub-Gub to help sick monkeys. The book keeps the source's short adventure episodes, so it works well after classroom units on animals, travel and simple past narrative. The reader includes colour illustrations, reading tasks and access to British-English audio through the Helbling Media App, with extra interactive practice on Helbling e-zone.
