The most famous of the other four stories are probably "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi", the story of a heroic mongoose, and "Toomai of the Elephants", the tale of a young elephant-handler. The Jungle Book - Classic Animal Fables by Rudyard Kipling - The tales in the book are fables, using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral lessons. As with much of Kipling's work, each of the stories is followed by a piece of verse.. The verses of The Law of the Jungle, for example, lay down rules for the safety of individuals, families, and communities. Kipling put in them nearly everything he knew or "heard or dreamed about the Indian jungle." Other readers have interpreted the work as allegories of the politics and society of the time. The best-known of them are the three stories revolving around the adventures of Mowgli, an abandoned "man cub" who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle
The younger animals are vulnerable to Shere Khan's bad intentions, which puts Mowgli in a position where he must prove himself at a special pack meeting. Vibrant digital vignettes display Mowgli not only surviving but thriving in a wild setting. VERDICT A solid addition to most library collections.-Samantha Lumetta, Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, OH(c) Copyright 2011. Through the tiger's dialogue, readers learn that Mowgli was abandoned in the forest by his parents, and can safely assume that Shere Khan means to harm him-though it is merely evidenced by the way the tiger roars his claims to the child and not explicitly stated in text. Fortunately, Mother and Father Wolf leap to Mowgli's defense and offer him love and protection as adoptive parents. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. The dynamic digital cartoon artwork supports this by depicting the jungle animals with large, expressive eyes and soft lines that take the bite out of fearsome features like claws and sharp teeth.

From School Library Journal PreS-Gr 2-This retelling oThe book is organized into sections that not only talk about cancer and treatment but also include some valuable spiritual insight. A fast read, very pedestrian writing, and not much to say.. It is based on the author's (Carol Look)experiment with a group of volunteers who saw remarkable results. He has done so in new and unexpected ways while adding plenty of action, an intriguing core mystery as well as additional secondary storylines, and a fine plot. It's a scam. I have been privilged to know and work with Kenneth Treister on a variery of projects over the past twenty years. This is the story of all the Henrys whose potential contributions have been lost to us All we can do is pray for a better future for them and their loved ones.. I enjoyed this book. She is truly, one of my favorite authors for stories of the Regency era! I have read her previous books, in her Lord and Lady Spy series and loved them! As always, the story of Jane and Dominic is filled with passion and humour! Beautiful hot chemistry between her two characters! The story starts as Jane Bonde, being the best agent that the Crown has, is given the mission to destro
