The Robert Ingpen Illustrated Classics Collection by Kenneth Grahame
A beautiful collection of timeless classics for a new generation, featuring three of the best-loved children's titles. Meet unforgettable characters in The Jungle Book and follow man-cub Mowgli's adventures with the Wolf Pack as he faces up to his life-long enemy, Shere Khan. Go on a swashbuckling journey in search of buried treasure with young Jim Hawkins in Treasure Island and see how Mr Toad leads his companions from one escapade to the next in The Wind in the Willows, until he finally realises the value of true friendship.
In 1879, Kenneth Grahame entered the Bank of England as a clerk, and soon began writing as a form of escapism. In 1907, Rudyard Kipling was the first English writer to be awarded the Nobel Prize and in 1926 he received the Gold Medal of the Royal Society of Literature. Robert Louis Stevenson was born in 1850. He studied engineering and then law, before finally becoming a writer. In 1986, Robert Ingpen was awarded the Hans Christian Andersen Medal for his contribution to children's literature and has been honoured with Membership of the Order of Australia.
