Rudyard Kipling is a famous writer, poet and short story writer, the first Englishman to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. Perhaps rarely has anyone had such a successful literary destiny: Kipling’s works were enthusiastically received by critics, his fees were record-breaking, and during the author’s lifetime four collected works were published - a truly unique case. This collection, along with The Jungle Books, are Kipling's most famous works. During the writer’s lifetime they were translated into twenty-seven languages! In the fascinating stories of the mischievous elf Puck, folklore, fairy tales, mythology and history are woven together, creating a unique atmosphere of good old England.
