Tonight, we have a story of Pirates and Parrots. Of Princes and pushmi-pullyus. of fishermen, sharks and swallows. Of travelling across the jungles in search of a way home, and the seas in search of family.

Proudly presenting the conclusion of “Doctor Dolittle” by Hugh Lofting, published in 1950. I'd like to thank everyone on the Tales by the Fireside Facebook page who helped vote in the next stories, and everyone's patience while I have got this second part out to you.

This second part was great to read, and satisfying to finish, and I sincerely hope you enjoy it. If you do, please let me know by leaving a comment, like or review and subscribing to whatever platform you are listening on. 

We are also crowdfunding for the continued existence and expansion of the show, should you wish to get involved, please check out gofundme.com/talesbythefireside. Everything you do and every interaction you make really does mean the world.
