"Kipling is recognized for his extraordinary ear for language,
his precise use of spare, vivid imagry,
amd his innovative plots and deceptively simple structure.
He has also been accused of
vulgarity,
sentimentality,
and copiousness
and has been identified with
imperialism,
jingoism,
fascism,
and racism.
Critics and proponents alike, however,
tend to agree that Kipling's most uncontroversial achievements
are his children's stories."
[Children's Books and their Creators; SILVEY, Anita, ed.; (New York, 1995)]
