Just So Stories

Kipling began these stories in Vermont, to amuse his daughter when they were living in his wife's home town. The comic explanations, such as "how the camel got his hump" and "how the whale got his throat", are complemented by the author's illustrations, with their extensive and ridiculous captions.

Kipling a inceput aceste povesti in Vermont, pentru a-si amuza fiica cand locuiau in orasul natal al sotiei sale. Explicatiile comice, precum ,,cum si-a luat cocoasa camila" si ,,cum i-a luat balena gatul", sunt completate de ilustratiile autoarei, cu legendele lor extinse si ridicole.
