In Doctor Doolittle's favor, however, the most recent edition was, with Lofting's family's permission, rewritten to take the worst of the racist stereotypes out.
Mileage will vary, of course, but I think they did a good job of it. I wouldn't want the same for Huckleberry Finn because the racism in there was part of the point, but for the Lofting books I think it's a good idea.
