  • How the rhinoceros got his skin,

    Rudyard Kipling

    Hardcover (Garden City Pub. Co, Jan. 1, 1942)
    When smooth-skinned rhinoceros steals a cake from the Parsee (``from whose hat the rays of the sun were reflected in more-than-oriental splendour'') he gets his just desserts--that is, cake crumbs deposited inside his skin. The itch causes him to rub and rub himself against a tree, until he becomes as wrinkled as we know him today. This ``Just So'' story is well suited to picture-book format, being short and spritely. This is a satisfying volume, full of simple, funny illustrations by F. Rojankovsky. The fun of the rhinoceros' tale, combined with thoughtful design and effective illustration, make this a pleasurable addition to a growing library of picture book ``Just So'' stories.
