Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling
Loyal Books
Written originally for his own children, Rudyard Kipling's Just So Stories have continued to delight generations of youngsters since they were first published in 1902. The thirteen stories collected in this book are meant for very young children, but they engage older kids and adults too with their charming conversational style and simple plot lines.These stories are typical examples of the “origin” story, where children are provided with imaginative rather than practical explanations for the “why” “what” “how” “where” “who” “when” questions of childhood.

He wanted to bring the world together and make it a smaller place; to forge alliances and achieve peace. This is his story. (Introduction by Alex C. Telander)
Free and Fearless: The Story of the First Parool Trial
Republic of Amsterdam Radio
On 5 February, 1943, thirteen men were executed in the Netherlands for their roles in printing, producing and distributing the illegal anti-Nazi newspaper Het Parool. Two hours before they were executed these men were allowed to write final letters to their family. 75 years later, we were lucky enough to be given access to some of these letters. What emerged as we dug deeper into their stories was "Free and Fearless", a three part series which follows their journeys, commemorating those whose actions helped allow us to live in a free and open society today.
