Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COMPLETE CLASSICS - Just So Stories for Little Children by Rudyard Kipling - The Just So Stories for Little Children are a collection written by the British author Rudyard Kipling. Highly fantasised origin stories, especially for differences among animals, they are among Kipling's best known works. The stories, first published in 1902, are pourquoi (French for "why") or origin stories, fantastic accounts of how various phenomena came about. A forerunner of these stories is Kipling's "How Fear Came," included in his The Second Jungle Book (1895). In it, Mowgli hears the story of how the tiger got his stripes. The Just So Stories typically have the theme of a particular animal being modified from an original form to its current form by the acts of man, or some magical being. For example, the Whale has a tiny throat because he swallowed a mariner, who tied a raft inside to block the whale from swallowing other men. The Camel has a hump given to him by a djinn as punishment for the camel's refusing to work (the hump allows the camel to work longer between times of eating). The Leopard's spots were painted by an Ethiopian (after the Ethiopian painted himself black). The Kangaroo gets its powerful hind legs, long tail, and hopping gait after being chased all day by a dingo, sent by a minor god responding to the Kangaroo's request to be made different from all other animals.

Book excerpt: This is an annotated version of the book1. contains an updated biography of the author at the end of the book for a better understanding of the text.2. This book has been checked and corrected for spelling errorsIN the sea, once upon a time, O my Best Beloved, there was a Whale, andhe ate fishes. He ate the starfish and the garfish, and the crab and thedab, and the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate, and themackereel and the pickereel, and the really truly twirly-whirly eel. Allthe fishes he could find in all the sea he ate with his mouth--so! Tillat last there was only one small fish left in all the sea, and he was asmall 'Stute Fish, and he swam a little behind the Whale's right ear,so as to be out of harm's way. Then the Whale stood up on his tail andsaid, 'I'm hungry.' And the small 'Stute Fish said in a small 'stutevoice, 'Noble and generous Cetacean, have you ever tasted Man?''No,' said the Whale. 'What is it like?''Nice,' said the small 'Stute Fish. 'Nice but nubbly.''Then fetch me some,' said the Whale, and he made the sea froth up withhis tail.'One at a time is enough,' said the 'Stute Fish. 'If you swim tolatitude Fifty North, longitude Forty West (that is magic), you willfind, sitting _on_ a raft, _in_ the middle of the sea, with nothing onbut a pair of blue canvas breeches, a pair of suspenders (you must _not_forget the suspenders, Best Beloved), and a jack-knife, oneship-wrecked Mariner, who, it is only fair to tell you, is a man ofinfinite-resource-and-sagacity.'So the Whale swam and swam to latitude Fifty North, longitude FortyWest, as fast as he could swim, and _on_ a raft, _in_ the middle of thesea, _with_ nothing to wear except a pair of blue canvas breeches, apair of suspenders (you must particularly remember the suspenders, BestBeloved), _and_ a jack-knife, he found one single, solitary shipwreckedMariner, trailing his toes in the water. (He had his mummy's leave topaddle, or else he would never have done it, because he was a man ofinfinite-resource-and-sagacity.)Then the Whale opened his mouth back and back and back till it nearlytouched his tail, and he swallowed the shipwrecked Mariner, and theraft he was sitting on, and his blue canvas breeches, and the suspenders(which you _must_ not forget), _and_ the jack-knife--He swallowed themall down into his warm, dark, inside cup-boards, and then he smacked hislips--so, and turned round three times on his tail.But as soon as the Mariner, who was a man ofinfinite-resource-and-sagacity, found himself truly inside the Whale'swarm, dark, inside cup-boards, he stumped and he jumped and he thumpedand he bumped, and he pranced and he danced, and he banged and heclanged, and he hit and he bit, and he leaped and he creeped, and heprowled and he howled, and he hopped and he dropped, and he cried and hesighed, and he crawled and he bawled, and he stepped and he lepped, andhe danced hornpipes where he shouldn't, and the Whale felt most unhappyindeed. (_Have_ you forgotten the suspenders?)So he said to the 'Stute Fish, 'This man is very nubbly, and besides heis making me hiccough. What shall I do?''Tell him to come out,' said the 'Stute Fish.So the Whale called down his own throat to the shipwrecked Mariner,'Come out and behave yourself. I've got the hiccoughs.''Nay, nay!' said the Mariner. 'Not so, but far otherwise. Take me to mynatal-shore and the white-cliffs-of-Albion, and I'll think about it.'And he began to dance more than ever. 'You had better take him home,' said the 'Stute Fish to the Whale. 'I ought to have warned you that he is a man of infinite-resource-and-sagacity.'So the Whale swam and swam and swam, with both flippers and his tail,as hard as he could for the hiccoughs; and at last he saw the Mariner'snatal-shore and the white-cliffs-of-Albion, and he rushed half-wayup the beach,
