Book Review: Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling

[button color=”black” size=”big” link=”http://affiliates.abebooks.com/c/99844/77798/2029?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abebooks.com%2Fservlet%2FSearchResults%3Fisbn%3D9781493679102″ target=”blank” ]Purchase here[/button]

From the same creative mind that brought us the exotic tales of The Jungle Books, comes this collection of amusing and enlightening stories for very small children. Told with warmth and affection, they combine tales of deepest, darkest Africa, with glimpses of India and the ancient Middle-East, a touch of Australia, and even some fetching stories of prehistoric cave-people. Learn “how the Whale got his Throat,” “how the Camel got his Hump,” “how the Rhinoceros got his Skin,” “How the First Letter was Written,” “How the Alphabet was Made,” and other useful lessons, told with a whimsical twinkle-in-the-eye. Lovers of puzzles can try and puzzle out a translation of the Runes around a magic tusk. And lovers of sweetly ironic stories will find simple pleasure in such masterpieces as “The Butterfly that Stamped.”
