Notes


A newly illustrated edition of Just So Stories with an introduction and two stories not usually included

'[I]t includes one additional Taffy adventure ("The Tabu Tale") not included in the first edition, as well as "Ham and the Porcupine", the last story of Kipling's career, neither of which are usually printed with the collection. These additions are neither better nor worse than the other just-sos: this volume's real distinguishing feature is its illustrations.' --Patricia Dooley, School Library Journal 1993; from a longer quotation at Amazon US as of 2016-07-03
