Kipling. Just So Stories

Today's free book is Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling. For the table of contents, check at the bottom of this post below the image.

The book is available at Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive, Baldwin Project, Hathi Trust, and Google Books. There is also a free audiobook at LibriVox.

There are different illustrated editions; this Internet Archive edition has illustrations by Joseph M. Gleeson, and I have made a Flickr collection.
