Sintesi dell'editore
This is a story from the Just So Stories collection.
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.
Recensioni editoriali
"How the Alphabet Was Made" tells the adorable story of Neolithic cave-kid Taffy, who invents symbols for a game with her dad. These symbols become the alphabet. Nobel-prize winning author Rudyard Kipling is best known for his collection of stories The Jungle Book. Geoffrey Palmer performs this story exactly how one would image a Kipling story to sound: excited, rib-tickling, and British. For 26 minutes, this tale sweeps away adults and kids alike into Taffy's fanciful ancient world of snakes, carp, spears, and sacred beavers.
"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)
