How did the leopard get his spots? How did the camel get his hump? How did an inquisitive little elephant change the lives of elephants everywhere? Kipling’s imagined answers to such questions draw on the beast fables he heard as a child in India as well as on folk traditions he later collected all over the world. Included in this selection are ‘How the Whale got his Throat’ ‘How the Camel got his Hump’ ‘How the Rhinoceros got his Skin’ ‘How the Leopard got his Spots’ ‘The Sing-Sing of Old Kangaroo’ and ‘The Elephant’s Child’.

Balloon Flight Experience for Two Nothing quite compares to the serenity of ballooning. Gaze down over the fields, hedgerows and villages, dappled in soft evening sunlight or tranquil early morning light. Bask in the magical silence as you float high above the ground and then drop low enough to skim the hedgerows and treetops. It’s a perfect way to take fabulous pictures – and a treat to remember for many years. After helping to inflate the balloon, you’ll take off for an hour’s flight and see the world below sliding slowly by. Enjoy a traditional champagne toast, and receive a flight certificate signed by your pilot and Sir Richard Branson. About The Balloon Flight Experience for Two When can you go?
