    he stories, first published in 1902, are fantastic accounts of how various natural phenomena came about. The original editions of Just So Stories were illustrated with woodcuts by Kipling himself. Each story is accompanied by a poem, in a somewhat ballad style. Many of the stories are addressed to “Best Beloved” (they were first written for Kipling’s eldest daughter, Josephine, who had died during an outbreak of influenza in 1899), and throughout they use a comically elevated style inspired by the formal speech of India, full of long and improbable-sounding words, some of them made up. As a result, it is a delight to read them aloud, and easy to memorize passages from them.

As a young seal he sees thousands of his fellow seals being clubbed to death by islanders for their skins every year. Kolick decides to do something about this and searches for a safe home where his people can mate and raise their young. After several years of searching as he comes of age, he eventually finds another suitable place in the Bering Sea. With much difficulty he persuades some of the other seals to follow him to a safe place that the hunters do not know of and where they will not be clubbed or shot.
