An unusually handsome presentation of these classic stories, with
sophisticated woodcuts that will commend it especially (but not
exclusively) to older children. Frampton provides one full-page
color illustration for each story, with a broad border of a
reiterated motif from the story framing a closely structured
composition - boldly stylized yet reflecting the story's lively
action and wit; additional vignettes enliven the generously spaced
text. An excellent edition for home or library. (Kirkus Reviews)
These witty stories were originally told by Rudyard Kipling to his
own children. In them he gives fanciful accounts of how and why
things came to be as they are. Generations of children have
delighted to learn how the Leopard got his spots, how the
Elephant's Child on the banks of the great grey-green Limpopo
acquired his trunk with the help of the Crocodile, and the
beginning of the Armadillos. Beautifully illustrated in
black-and-white by the author, these delightful tales will hold the
reader and listener spellbound.
