Excerpt from 1952 collection Doctor Dolittle's Puddleby Adventures – in fact, one of the collected stories
This is the eighth of eight selections from Dolittle books that compose the 1967 Treasury as eight chapters under their original book titles. Uniquely the book was a collection rather than a novel; in fact, the "excerpt" text is one of the collected stories, complete. Here it begins with the illustrated title page of the collection (without publisher name and location). The narrative and 2 interior illustrations are divided by headings into three sections (1987 Puffin, 261-68): · The Dog Ambulance · The Mishap at Kingsbridge · The Reception at the Surgery
