Just So Stories
Just So Stories
Author: Rudyard Kipling
The series “Just So Stories” consists of twelve stories, whose contents do not make a unity, although they pursue the same purpose, which is to entertain the reader with humorous puns and to take them on a travel around familiar and unfamiliar worlds through time and space.
Directly and indirectly, the tales have didactic, moralizing and educational effect.
Joseph Rudyard Kipling (30 December 1865 – 18 January 1936) was an English short-story writer, poet, and novelist. He wrote tales and poems of British soldiers in India and stories for children. He was born in Bombay, in the Bombay Presidency of British India, and was taken by his family to England when he was five years old.
Kipling's works of fiction include The Jungle Book (1894), Kim (1901), and many short stories, including "The Man Who Would Be King" (1888). His poems include "Mandalay" (1890), "Gunga Din" (1890), "The Gods of the Copybook Headings" (1919), "The White Man's Burden" (1899), and "If—" (1910). He is regarded as a major innovator in the art of the short story; his children's books are enduring classics of children's literature; and one critic described his work as exhibiting "a versatile and luminous narrative gift".
