Tarzan of the Apes, written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, is the first book in the Tarzan series. It tells the story of John Clayton, a baby boy whose parents, Lord and Lady Greystoke, are marooned and killed in the African jungle. Adopted by a female ape named Kala, he is raised among the apes and named Tarzan, meaning 'white skin' in the ape language. As Tarzan grows, he discovers his human heritage through his parents' cabin and teaches himself to read and write. He eventually becomes the leader of the apes and protects a group of humans, including Jane Porter, whom he falls in love with. The novel explores themes of identity, belonging, and the clash between human and animal instincts.

The story follows Dr. John Dolittle, a respected physician who lives in the small English village of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh. His love for animals grows, and he eventually learns to speak to them from his parrot, Polynesia. As his household menagerie expands, he loses his human clients but gains fame in the animal kingdom. Dr. Dolittle embarks on a voyage to Africa to cure a monkey epidemic, facing numerous challenges including shipwrecks, pirates, and encounters with the king of Jolliginki. The book is the first in the Dr. Dolittle series and was published in the US in 1920 and in the UK in 1924.
