Description

He told us how the elephant got its trunk and the leopard its spots, and his classic "Jungle Book" entranced young readers for years even before it inspired a much-loved Disney film. His exquisitely crafted, rhythmic poems practically beg to be read aloud; their musical cadences captivate children. Add to that his humour, sympathetic and finely drawn characters, often deep personal emotions - no wonder Kipling was hugely popular and became the first English writer to win the Noble Prize for Literature. 23 selections include: excerpts from the Just So stories; How the camel got its hump; If...; The cat who walked by himself; Mandalay; The Ballad of East & West
