Summary "Stalky & Co." by Rudyard Kipling is a collection of fictional stories written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around the mischievous exploits of a trio of schoolboys—Stalky, McTurk, and Beetle—who often find themselves at odds with the authority figures at their English boarding school, using ingenuity and wit to navigate the trials of youth. At the start of "Stalky & Co.", the boys are depicted engaging in their favorite pastime: building secret huts in the woods to escape the prying eyes of their teachers. Their antics quickly escalate when they are found out, leading to a series of humorous events that showcase their cleverness and camaraderie. Distinctly characterized, each boy contributes to their collective mischief, while their interactions highlight their distinct personalities and social dynamics within the school environment. The opening lays a strong foundation for the camaraderie and playful rebellion that is central to the book. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
