The long-awaited sequel to 'Doctor De Soto' (1982), a Newbery Honor Book.
It's business as usual at the office of Doctor Bernard De Soto, the world-renowned dentist, when a cablegram arrives begging him to come to Africa and work his wonders on Mudambo, an elephant with an unbearable toothache. The kind-hearted dentist and his wife, Deborah, sail for Africa right away.
Before he can help the suffering elephant, Doctor De Soto is kidnapped by a vindictive rhesus monkey. But in spite of everything, the De Sotos come through, and Mudambo's tooth is as good as new when they finally go on their way.
William Steig (1907-2003) was an American cartoonist, illustrator and writer of children's books. He was best known for the picture book Shrek!' (1990), which inspired the film series of the same name, as well as others that included 'Sylvester and the Magic Pebble' (1969), 'Abel's Island' (1976), and 'Doctor De Soto' (1982).
