Doctor Dolittle's Caravan deals with the titular character's bird opera, centering around a female green canary named Pipinella. Pipinella is special in that she possesses what is generally assumed to be an exclusive trait of male canaries: birdsong.
The novel disrupts the chronological order of the series, with events occurring between "Circus" and "Voyages" despite the book's publication between "Zoo" and "Garden".
