Just So Stories

These are some of the stories Rudyard Kipling made up for his children. They are called ‘Just So’ because he told them again and again, and the children always wanted them to be told just the same. He drew the black and white pictures himself.


From 2015 to 2019 we ran a competition for Primary School children
to write their own Just So stories. This was curtailed when the

Covid-19 pandemic arose and to date has not been resumed.
You can click here to see how the competition worked out,
and read some of the brilliant prize-winning tales.
