Explore "Doctor Dolittle in the Moon" by Hugh Lofting on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
This expedition on the trail of the Whispering Vines proved to be one of the most fruitful and satisfactory of all our excursions.
When we finally arrived at the home of this species, we found it a very beautiful place. It was a rocky gulch hard by the jungle, where a dense curtain of creepers hung down into a sort of pocket precipice with a spring-fed pool at the bottom. In such a place you could imagine fairies dancing in the dusk, wild beasts of the forest sheltering, or outlaws making their headquarters.
