Product Description

Product Description
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'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Listen and enjoy ( and remember Animal Magic!), 15 April 2008
By Helen Whall "Aitch" (Lincolnshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'd always enjoyed being read and later reading myself the Just So Stories. With children of my own I started them on these stories and having a cd of them means we can enjoy them on the move. The joy of hearing Jonnie Morris' super animal voice characterisations just adds to the enjoyment - takes me back to watching Animal Magic - deep joy!
Four year old daughter enjoys listening to the stories but my nine year old son has become a great fan - this now regularly is on his cd player in his room.
Buy this and you'll all be able to listen together and enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just So Good, 8 Feb 2009
By R. Leslie (Hampshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My 3 and 5 year old boys love listening to these Just So Stories in the car or in bed. The stories themselves are engaging and entertaining and Johnny Morris reads them very expressively, as those of us who grew up watching him on TV would expect. I would have rated it 5 stars but felt that there could have been more of the Just So stories on the disc.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for the kids, 7 Jun 2009
By JuJuDollie "JuJuDollie" (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
I really love the Just So Stories which fed my imagination as a child so when I saw this at a bargain price I thought I'd buy it for a friend's child. After receiving it I couldn't resist listening to it and I've kept it for me (oops!).
The stories are from a time of innocence and are so visual that you can't help but smile as you listen to them. As an adult I find them just as fun as I did as a child and while I'm crafting away I occassionally have it on in the background. I can imagine that they will be good for playing in cars on long journeys or to calm a child as they get ready for sleep.
These narated stories will hopefully lead children on to read books and go on an amazing journey of learning.
PS I did buy another copy for my friend ;-)
