Summary

The Jungle Book is a collection of stories, originally published in magazines in the late 1800s, that involve animals with anthropomorphic characteristics to convey moral lessons. The most famous of these stories involves a young Indian boy named Mowgli who was raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. He and his friends - Baloo, a sloth bear; and Bagheera, a black panther - go on many adventures, culminating in a fight with the jungle's bully, the tiger Shere Khan. Containing other famous stories such as "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi" and "Toomai of the Elephants", this collection of Rudyard Kipling's most famous stories encompasses his time living in India and the wonders of the Indian jungle.
