Kim 
by Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) 


Kim is a fabulous adventure story set in India during 
the former British Empire. It tells the story of a 
street-wise but (in typical Kipling fashion) highly 
moral Anglo-Indian boy who becomes enmeshed in 
“the Great Game” — the competition between Britain 
and Russia for control over Asia. Taking time off 
from his role as the traveling companion of an aged 
Tibetan lama, the boy is trained as a spy, matches 
wits with various evildoers, and wins out in the end. So much more than just 
a spy story, Kim is one of the most enjoyable books that you will ever read 
— or have read to you. 











Rudyard Kipling was born in Bombay, India. He was the author of many 
short stories and novels including The Jungle Book.
