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’.
