According to Wikipedia: "Joseph Rudyard Kipling (1865 – 1936) was an English author and poet. Born in Bombay, British India (now Mumbai), he is best known for his works The Jungle Book (1894) and Rikki-Tikki-Tavi (1902), his novel, Kim (1901); his poems, including Mandalay (1890), Gunga Din (1890), If— (1910); and his many short stories, including The Man Who Would Be King (1888). He is regarded as a major "innovator in the art of the short story"; his children's books are enduring classics of children's literature; and his best works speak to a versatile and luminous narrative gift. Kipling was one of the most popular writers in English, in both prose and verse, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.[2] The author Henry James said of him: "Kipling strikes me personally as the most complete man of genius (as distinct from fine intelligence) that I have ever known." In 1907, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, making him the first English language writer to receive the prize, and to date he remains its youngest recipient. Among other honours, he was sounded out for the British Poet Laureateship and on several occasions for a knighthood, all of which he declined."

Stories for children. With 25 illustrations. According to Wikipedia: "Edith Nesbit (married name Edith Bland; 15 August 1858 – 4 May 1924) was an English author and poet whose children's works were published under the name of E. Nesbit. She wrote or collaborated on over 60 books of fiction for children, several of which have been adapted for film and television. She was also a political activist and co-founded the Fabian Society, a precursor to the modern Labour Party.... Nesbit published approximately 40 books for children, both novels and collections of stories. Collaborating with others, she published almost as many more. According to her biographer Julia Briggs, Nesbit was "the first modern writer for children": "(Nesbit) helped to reverse the great tradition of children's literature inaugurated by [Lewis] Carroll, [George] MacDonald and Kenneth Grahame, in turning away from their secondary worlds to the tough truths to be won from encounters with things-as-they-are, previously the province of adult novels." Briggs also credits Nesbit with having invented the children's adventure story. Among Nesbit's best-known books are The Story of the Treasure Seekers (1898) and The Wouldbegoods (1899), which both recount stories about the Bastables, a middle class family that has fallen on relatively hard times. Her children's writing also included numerous plays and collections of verse. She created an innovative body of work that combined realistic, contemporary children in real-world settings with magical objects and adventures and sometimes travel to fantastic worlds."

Edizione specifica per kindle con 67 illustrazioni, mappa del viaggio e indice navigabile. Tre uomini in barca (senza contare il cane) o, in altre traduzioni, Tre uomini in barca (per non parlar del cane) oppure Tre uomini in barca (per tacer del cane) è un romanzo di Jerome K. Jerome del 1889, è un romanzo umoristico ed considerato uno dei più importanti classici della letteratura inglese. Il romanzo narra la avventure di tre amici Jerome, Harris (l'uomo più prosaico della terra) e George (che ?va a dormire in una banca tutti i giorni dalle 10 alle 16, tranne il sabato che lo cacciano fuori alle 14?), che assieme al fedele cane Montmorency, viaggiano per giorni sulla loro imbarcazione, risalendo la corrente del fiume Tamigi, scorrendo lungo le campagne inglesi, e vivendo sempre nuove e inattese avventure che strappano risate di continuo. Il viaggio è costellato da una serie di gag comiche sulle gioie e sui dolori della vita in barca (quali le peripezie sul trasporto delle vivande, la costruzione della tenda sulla barca, i pericoli di cadute in acqua), unite a divertenti divagazioni che costituiscono storie a sé stanti, nel miglior stile dello humour inglese: celeberrimo è il racconto dello zio Podger alle prese con un quadro da appendere. Il tutto condito da descrizioni realistiche delle regioni attraversate dalla simpatica brigata e brevi notazioni di filosofia per non addetti ai lavori. La traduzione si basa sull'edizione del 1922 curata da Silvio Spaventa Filippi, ma è stata aggiornata all'italiano corrente dal redattore preservando lo stile dell'epoca in cui è stato scritto. Il testo è completo e si riferisce all'edizione del 1899 ed è arricchito da 67disegni originali di A. Frederics e della mappa del viaggio. Jerome K. Jerome (Walsall, 2 maggio 1859 – Northampton, 14 giugno 1927) è stato uno scrittore, giornalista e umorista britannico. ? ritenuto tra i maggiori scrittori umoristici inglesi. Lontano dai modi della farsa, del facile gioco di parole, dell'allusione oscena, il suo umorismo scaturiva anche dall'osservazione dalle situazioni più comuni e quotidiane. § Se sei interessato ad imparare o migliorare il tuo inglese o il tuo italiano, cerca l'edizione bilingue curata da Wirton Arvel. Troverai una versione Inglese-Italiano con paragrafo a fronte facile da leggere perché il testo originale e quello tradotto sono su due colonne affiancate.
