About this audiobook
Kipling’s classic tale taken from the Just So Stories. Neolithic cave girl Taffy tries to send a pictorial letter home when her father breaks his fishing spear, but her message is hilariously misinterpreted, and a series of misunderstandings follows.
Author
Rudyard Kipling
Rudyard Kipling was born in India in 1865. After intermittently moving between India and England during his early life, he settled in the latter in 1889, published his novel The Light That Failed in 1891 and married Caroline (Carrie) Balestier the following year. They returned to her home in Brattleboro, Vermont, where Kipling wrote both The Jungle Book and its sequel, as well as Captains Courageous. He continued to write prolifically and was the first Englishman to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907 but his later years were darkened by the death of his son John at the Battle of Loos in 1915. He died in 1936.
