01/03/2008: "hugh lofting"
On January 14 we celebrate the anniversary of the birth of Hugh Lofting who wrote the series of books we all love, the stories of Doctor Dolittle. Believe it or not, Lofting first wrote the stories in his letters from the front while he served in the British Army during World War One. Probably no single author has done as much as Lofting in bringing the fate of animals to the minds of all of us. This year, read aloud to each other a copy of The Story of Doctor Dolittle in Lofting's memory.
