To determine the point of view in which a book is written, one would typically look at the perspective from which the story is being told. In the case of the book "Dr. Dolittle" by Hugh Lofting, the story is primarily written in the third-person limited point of view.
To confirm this, you can consult the book itself or any reliable literary analysis or synopsis. Look for phrases such as "he," "she," or character names used to refer to the main protagonist, Dr. Dolittle, which indicates a third-person perspective. Additionally, pay attention to whether the narrator provides insight into the thoughts and feelings of other characters. If the thoughts and feelings of the other characters are not exposed, it suggests the limited point of view.
