Описание и характеристики

Rudyard Kiplings beloved collection of short stories about a boy raised by wolves who learns the Laws of the Jungle.

Mowgli, lost in the deep jungle as a child, is adopted into a family of wolves. Hunted by Shere Khan, the Bengal tiger, Mowgli is allowed to run with the wolf pack under the protection of Bagheera, the black panther, and Baloo, the brown bear who teaches wolf cubs the Laws of the Jungle. Through his many adventures, Mowgli evolves from a man-cub to a just and compassionate human being who at last returns to join--perhaps to lead--his own kind.

W. Somerset Maugham calls Kipling "our greatest short story writer," and in The Jungle Books, he says, Kiplings "great and varied gifts find their most brilliant expression." His most famous work effortlessly captures the imagination and has inspired beloved film adaptations, including Disneys The Jungle Book, as well as readers the world over.
