Just So Stories (Include Audio book)
Rudyard Kipling
These stories are typical examples of the "origin" story, where children are provided with imaginative rather than practical explanations for the "why" "what" "how" "where" "who" "when" questions of childhood. The Just So Stories were tales that Kipling would tell his own daughter who tragically died in infancy of pneumonia. All the fables in the Just So Stories follow a similar theme. They relate how a particular creature is altered from an original form into its present appearance either by a magical spirit or a human being. So the reader encounters wonderful and fantastical reasons why The Whale Got Its Throat, The Camel Got Its Hump, The Rhinoceros Got Its Skin, How the Alphabet was Made, and so on...
