About this title

Synopsis

“With dedication to the structure, rhythm, and rhyme of his craft, Kipling created poetry that, when read aloud, sings to its audience in every phase. Sharpe’s exquisite paintings illustrate the exotic quality of the verse. Vibrant colors reflect the strong emotions of each poem…A worthy addition.” – School Library Journal
