For more than one hundred years, the stories from The Jungle Book have enchanted readers, both young and old, with their important moral lessons and engaging narratives. By anthropomorphizing the animal characters in the stories--in a vein similar to Aesop--famed writer Rudyard Kipling provides readers with parables that teach family and community values while simultaneously entertaining and inspiring. Consequently, these stories have stood the test of time, have been published in a variety of editions and publications, and continue to be reprinted today.

Including a new foreword by leading children's literature expert Michael Patrick Hearn, Mowgli of the Jungle Book spotlights Kipling's classic character as he's faced with an abundance of epic adventures and challenges--all of which have underlying moral dilemmas sure to teach readers what matters most.
