| Abstract | ||
| The purpose of this paper is to examine the patterns of communication used by Kipling in his Just So Stories: For Little Children and how children react with them. It analyses the strategies and techniques used by Kipling to urge children to interact with the stories. The study shows that Kipling is not only a storyteller but an illustrator and a poet who addresses children and changes them into critical readers. The study also proves that Kipling was so interested in the response of his little readers that he tried to urge them to interact with his funny stories. | ||
