About the author

Born in Bombay on December 30, 1865, Rudyard Kipling spent part of his childhood in India before being sent to England for school. Those early experiences stayed with him and shaped much of his writing, especially the stories, poems, and novels set in British India.

Kipling worked as a journalist before becoming one of the most widely read writers of his time. His books include The Jungle Book, The Second Jungle Book, Kim, and the Just So Stories, and in 1907 he received the Nobel Prize in Literature.

His work was praised for its vivid storytelling and memorable language, but it has also been debated for its strong ties to the attitudes and politics of the British Empire. That mix of literary power and historical controversy is still part of why he remains such a widely discussed author today.
