HOW THE LEOPARD GOT HIS SPOTS
Author: Rudyard Kipling
Illustrator: F. ROJANKOVSKY
Originally collected as Kipling's "JUST-SO STORIES", this is part of a series that presents tales individually, with dynamic art by Feodor Rojankovsky.
Kipling created these amusing stories to explain how animals (supposedly) got certain features that are indelibly associated with them.
Rojankovsky did a lot of work for Little Golden Books and was especially known for his marvelous illustrations of animals.
This book was bought used and is in very good condition. I take good care of my books in my smoke-free environment.

I am happy to combine shipping to save my buyers money. Books can easily be combined and pack well together. Media mail is a very affordable rate offered by the USPS. Cost is based solely on weight and not on distance. If buying multiple books, please put them in your cart and then "request total from seller". I will then send you an invoice with an adjusted shipping cost.
However, I have been told that if you are ordering from a phone, it may not be possible to request such a total. If that is your situation, please go ahead and pay the shipping as billed. Then, when I process your order, I will calculate the difference between shipping paid versus actual cost, and refund you any difference.
