Best known for the 'Mowgli' stories, Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book expertly interweaves myth, morals, adventure and powerful storytelling. Set in Central India, Mowgli is raised by a pack of wolves. Along the way he encounters memorable characters such as the foreboding tiger Shere Kahn, Bagheera the panther and Baloo the bear. Including other stories such as that of Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, a heroic mongoose and Toomai, a young elephant handler, Kipling's fables remain as popular today as they ever were.

Just So Stories is a Puffin Classic by Rudyard Kipling for children and adults. It is made up of 12 short stories such as: How the Leopard got his Spots, How the Camel got his Hump and even How the Alphabet was Made, but my favourite story has to be How the Rhinoceros got his Skin because its a really interesting and very funny like lots of the other stories in the book.It also has some great illustrations by Rudyard Kipling with captions to explain exactly what the picture next to it and it comes with a special glossary at the back for children (and adults) to look up what some of his partly made up and olden language words mean which I found very useful.Although it was published for the first time in 1902, making it quite old, and other than some of the words being old English it is not out of date at all and it is fairly easy to unerstand.Overall, it is funny, interesting and an absolutely brilliant book!
