Alma Junior Classics: The Jungle Books

Giới thiệu Alma Junior Classics: The Jungle Books

The adventures of Mowgli, the young man raised by wolves in the jungles of Central India, and his friends Baloo the bear, Bagheera the panther and Kaa the python, as they face the arch villain Shere Khan the tiger, have become so popular that they have achieved an almost mythical status throughout the world. They were collected by Kipling in The Jungle Book and its sequel, The Second Jungle Book, which also contain other stories set in India which prominently feature animals, such as the well-known ‘Rikki-Tikki-Tavi’, which describes the struggles of a mongoose against venomous cobras.

Here presented with brand-new illustrations by Ian Beck, these hugely popular tales, inspired by ancient fables and Kipling’s own experiences in India, form a vivid account of the relationship between humans and nature, and will continue to inspire readers young and old.

This edition contains extra material for young readers including a section on ‘As Wild as Mowgli’, a test yourself quiz and a glossary.

“The incantatory text of Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Books still rewards reading aloud.” – Sunday Times

“The Jungle Book was one of those rare books that I felt I was actually living as I read it.” – Michael Morpurgo,

“Around a century ago, Rudyard Kipling laid the foundations of modern children's literature with works such as The Jungle Book, Just So Stories and Puck of Pook's Hill. Far from the fusty Victorian conventions of the time, they were wild, magnificent stories that felt as though they'd always existed, stories people might have told each other in the caves.” – The Daily Telegraph

“The stories are timeless, carefully crafted classics, and although they're intended for children, there is no doubt in my mind that this terrific book will appeal equally to young and old” – Books Monthly

“The superlative story-telling is a good edition of these classics” – Parents in Touch
