Publisher's Summary

Here is the complete and unabridged collection of Rudyard Kipling's delightful Just So Stories, which he first told to his own children before setting them down on paper: How the Camel Got His Hump, How the Leopard Got His Spots, How the Elephant Got His Trunk, The Butterfly that Stamped, and many others. Written in the late 1800s and first published in 1902, these enchanting animals remain unforgettable, over 100 years later. To hear these magic fables by a master of children's literature is to enjoy them.

What the critics say

"This collection includes Kipling's 12 original Just So Stories narrated by Geoffrey Palmer, whose deep and resonant voice is perfectly suited to the tales. It is satisfying to hear the stories as they were meant to be told - aloud." ( School Library Journal)

Geoffrey Palmer was born for this

#Audible1. Listen and attend to me oh best beloved. Geoffrey Palmer's unique and delightful voice and his charming and often hilarious interpretation of the whimsical Just So Stories is out of this world. The book and its narrator are a match made in heaven. Stoke up the fire, make a plate of hot buttered crumpets, put on your headphones and pour Mr. Palmer's gorgeous voice into your ears.
