The Curiosities of Professor Hickory

When Walden B. Hickory, an eccentric professor of linguistics, realizes that he can communicate with animals, he devotes his life pursuits to interspecies communication. His ability to communicate with a whole cast of zany animal characters feeds his insatiable curiosity for evidence that animals speak distinct languages which he intends to decipher and translate into English. The Curiosities of Professor Hickory is a book for young adults and can be read to younger children.
