HOW THE FIRST LETTER WAS WRITTEN by RUDYARD KIPLING
In this delightful tale, which is one of Kipling's beloved "Just So Stories", a neolithic father and daughter are fishing far from their cave when he spear breaks and he turns all his attention toward fixing it. While he is occupied his daughter meets a native from another tribe who, due to her lack of fear and somewhat bossy nature, believes she must be a great chief's daughter.. Unable to understand her language, he hands her a piece of birchbark to show his heart is pure, and she misunderstands his intention, believing he his handing her a means by which she can communicate. She proceeds to draw a map back to her cave where he can find her mother who will provide a replacement spear.

Customer Reviews
Good to Great
I really like this podcast, but can you do less stories from the Communist, Jack London. Don’t cut out, just less.
Nice change of pace!
I really like these short stories! I listen to WAY too many current event/political podcasts and when they get to be too much, I listen to these and calm down! The host has a nice voice and does a great job! Thank you!
Good stories; Awful voice
Nice selection of stories. Unfortunately, the host speaks WAY too quickly, and his voice is both grating and inexpressive.
