Other editions of book Doctor Dolittle's garden,

Doctor Dolittle’s Garden is structurally the most disorganised of Hugh Lofting’s Doctor Dolittle books. The first part would fit very well into Doctor Dolittle’s Zoo, which this book follows. The rest of the book forms a reasonably coherent narrative. Doctor Dolittle’s assistant, Tommy Stubbins, reports on Professor Quetch, curator of the Dog Museum in the Home for Crossbred Dogs. Meanwhile, the doctor has learnt 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.

Hugh John Lofting was a British author who created the character of Doctor Dolittle - one of the classics of children's literature. His early education was at Mount St. Mary's College in Sheffield, after which he went to the United States, completing a degree in civil engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He enlisted in the Irish Guards to serve in World War I. Not wishing to write to his children of the brutality of the war, he wrote imaginative letters that were the foundation of the Doctor Dolittle novels.

More adventures of the eccentric country physician with a bent for natural history and a great love of animals. Doctor Dolittle’s garden is teeming with insects, so he is determined to learn the insect languages, and soon hears some fascinating stories. None is more intriguing than the tale of the giant moths, and he decides to seek them out. But before he can set out, he is amazed when one arrives in his garden—on a mission to bring the Doctor to the Moon!

The first part of the book tells about the club for crossing dogs and several of them tell stories after their lives about their lives. Then, leaving the dogs behind, Dr. Dolittle becomes obsessed with learning the language of insects, so he invents a machine for this and, eventually, manages to learn several stories about insects. Dr. Doolittle hears rumors of giant moths, so he asks his animal friends and insects to learn more about them. Then, quite unexpectedly, a giant moth appears in his garden and he learn to communicate with them.
