Kipling
Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was a British writer born in Bombay, India. Although Kipling wrote for both adults and children, it is his younger fiction that has endured. His other works include The Jungle Book (1894), The Second Jungle Book (1895), Kim (1901), and many other short stories and poems. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907 and is one of Britain's most treasured children's authors. Seb Camagajevac was born in Zagreb, Croatia, and graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb. He has worked for many book and magazine publishers in Croatia, Slovenia and the UK.
