With vivid characters and an hysterically funny choice of words, Rudyard Kipling’s beloved stories “explain” how camels got humps, great whales got tiny throats, elephants got trunks, and more. These time-tested classics cause us to look at accepted qualities in new and creative ways, and even better, make us laugh out loud.
