A Baby in the Cave

Pictures by Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling's own pen drawing of a tall heap of boulders with a cave at its foot, from the Just So Stories, paired with his line about a Baby in the Cave who is new and pink and fat and small, and a Woman who is very fond of him. Kipling wrote these stories to be read aloud to his own children and drew the pictures himself. For new parents welcoming a baby.
