Based on Hugh Lofting's The Story of Doctor Dolittle, iconic American artist Seymour Chwast reinterprets the 1920s tale for a 21st-century, graphic-novel-influenced audience. Although the text itself has been reimagined to fit the format, the general plot of The Story of Doctor Dolittle, along with the sentiments and ideals behind it, remain the same: in Dr. Dolittle's world of childlike wonder and hope, we are all encouraged to be caretakers of the creatures around us.

Born in 1931 in New York City, Seymour Chwast developed his talent for drawing from an early age. In the 1950s, he cofounded Push Pin Studios (now The Pushpin Group), and he remains the organization's director today. Chwast's style has always been marked by a rich eclecticism that has set his work apart from the mainstream, and in 1985, he was honored with a Gold Medal from the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA). He lives in New York with his wife, the graphic designer and painter Paula Scher.
