Doctor de Soto Goes to Africa
by William Steig
Doesn't compare well to [a:Steig's|26874|William Steig|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1201030267p2/26874.jpg] better books, and doesn't have much of a story nor would it really stand alone without the first book about [b:Doctor De Soto|817316|Doctor De Soto|William Steig|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1312018676s/817316.jpg|1595522].

So, a heck of a lot better than the average children's book, but still very disappointing for a title by [a:William Steig|26874|William Steig|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1201030267p2/26874.jpg].
