(17 Feb. 03: Thanks for your patience as I redesign the site!
Please email me if you find any bad links, etc.)

Hello! So glad you've found your way to Puddleby-on-the-Marsh! If you've come to see our most renowned resident, the man who talks to the animals, then you're in luck: it happens that John Dolittle, M.D., and his friends are between voyages at the moment, and they are receiving callers. In fact, if you hurry, you may be in time for tea! Just click on any of the buttons below to begin your visit (and to keep from getting lost in the Doctor's big house, look for these buttons at the bottom of each page at the site).
