Doctor Dolittle and the Green Canary is a Doctor Dolittle book written by Hugh Lofting.[1] Although much of the material had been printed originally in 1924[citation needed] for the Herald Tribune Syndicate,[1] Lofting planned to complete the story in the book form but never finished before he died. Lofting's wife's sister, dancer Olga Fricker, completed the book and was published posthumously in 1950. Everything except the first and last chapter are by Lofting.
