The Jungle Book

The Jungle Book
A collection of stories by Rudyard Kipling about the jungles of India. Many of the characters are animals such as Baloo the bear and Shere Khan the tiger. Kipling was born in India and spent the first six years of his childhood there. The Jungle Book remains popular to this day and has been the subject of many plays, movies, and other adaptations.
