Pictures by Rudyard Kipling
Rudyard Kipling's own black-and-white drawing of an elephant wading into a river, a snake coiling through the water nearby, comes with his line from the Just So Stories: 'Good-bye. I am going to the great grey-green, greasy Limpopo River.' Kipling wrote these stories to read aloud to his own children and drew the pictures himself. For someone setting off on a new adventure.
Add four of your own photos and your own words; we print the card in the US and post it for you.
