Once again, Dr. Dolittle knocks the stuffing out of our ethnocentric, gender-centric, species-centric ways of thinking - as he listens carefully, studies and seeks ways to establish genuine communication with the most remarkable living creatures. Unlike today's top-down corporate and political leaders - Dolittle listens and learns. He gives credit where it is due, shares in hardships, teaches by example, practices the scientific method and does not distinguish worth by class, age, gender, appearance, education or species origin. Every parent should read Dr. Dolittle to their kids or to each other. You'll end up wanting to name your next dog, Jip, or your next daughter, Polynesia.
