This book IS NOT MEANT to be a REPLACEMENT for Kipling's Original work - if you want that then please look elsewhere. It is primarily a beautifully illustrated picture book, with two full colour images on every page, for youngsters based on the Animated TV series adapted from Kipling's stories. It still stars the original Curious Elephant who is a typical youngster. Always curious about the world, always asking Who? Where? What? and When? Even though his questions bring him a bit of bother it all turns out for the better in the end. We hope this book will help keep that sense of wonder and fun alive !
