"Il fouilla dans l'épaisseur des loques qui entouraient sa taille tordue, retira un sac de crin noir bordé de fil d'argent, et en secoua sur la table la tête desséchée et flétrie de Daniel Davrot !

Savez-vous pourquoi l'éléphant a une trompe, la baleine ne mange que des petits poissons, le chameau porte une bosse sur son dos ou encore pourquoi le kangourou fait des bonds pour se déplacer ? Dans ses "Histoires comme ça", Rudyard Kipling, l'auteur du célèbre "Livre de la jungle", répond à ces questions en imaginant avec liberté et poésie l'origine du monde et de ses habitants.

In the jungle of Southern India the Seeonee Wolf-Pack has a new cub. He is not a wolf - he is Mowgli, a human child, but he knows nothing of the world of men. He lives and hunts with his brothers the wolves. Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther are his friends and teachers. And Shere Khan, the man-eating tiger, is his enemy.Kipling’s famous story of Mowgli’s adventures in the jungle has been loved by young and old for more than a hundred years.

Revenu chez lui, il est couronné roi des éléphants et épouse sa cousine Céleste.
