The editors of this.little book will feel that its object has been accomplished if it opens to the young reader the beautiful and stimulating world of imaginative literature that Mr. Kipling has created for children. They are sure that no child who has tasted of the pure joy of the extracts from the Just So Stories and The Jungle Books that are here presented by the kind permission of their respective publishers and of Mr. Kipling, will fail to wish for more of this delightful literature. The beauties of the selections are not such as need to be pointed out to the eager reader and their peculiar charm makes itself felt almost upon opening the book. It only remains, therefore, for the editors to extend their appreciative thanks to Mr. Kipling, Messrs. The Century Company, and Doubleday, Page Co., whose cooperation made this book possible, and to express the hope that many young readers will through it be introduced to the Just So Stories and The Jungle Books.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a compelling collection of tales from the author's imagination, delves into the fantastical world of The Jungle Book and the Just So Stories. The author brings these beloved classics to life with imaginative flair, exploring the timeless themes of friendship, loyalty, and the power of self-discovery. The Jungle Book is a journey into a lush and untamed world, where Mowgli, a young boy raised by wolves, learns the laws of the jungle through encounters with wise mentors such as Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther. The Just So Stories, on the other hand, weave whimsical and thought-provoking tales that seek to explain the origins of everything from the camel's hump to the elephant's trunk. Throughout these stories, the author's storytelling prowess shines. With vivid language and enchanting imagery, the author transports readers to realms where animals talk, jungles whisper secrets, and the boundaries between reality and imagination blur. The book invites readers of all ages to explore the wonders of the natural world and the depths of human nature, reminding us of the power of storytelling to teach, inspire, and entertain.
