How the Whale Got His Throat: Rudyard Kipling

Long ago, whales could eat anything - and they did. This story tells how things changed. Adapted from one of the Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling, this wonderful story has puzzles to solve at the end.
How the Whale got his Throat is in the Usborne First Reading series, written especially for children who are learning to read, and developed in consultation with Alison Kelly, formerly Principal Lecturer in Education and reading specialist at the University of Roehampton. Delightfully illustrated, these books combine great stories with simple text to excite and inspire any beginner reader.
