About this title

Synopsis

"As a child I loved The Jungle Books . . . If you want to look at the India of Kipling's time, there is no writer who will give it to you better."  —Salman Rushdie

 

The Jungle Book and The Second Jungle Book tell stories of the irrepressible Mowgli, who is rescued as a baby from the jaws of the evil tiger, Shere Khan. Raised by wolves and guided by Baloo the bear, Mowgli and his animal friends embark on a series of hair-raising adventures through the jungles of India.
