Jungle Book

Among the best loved of all classics for children are the tales of Mowgli, the boy who learned the law of the jungle as he grew up among a pack of wolves in India's Seeonee Hills. First published in 1894, the book imagines a child living and flourishing in a community of animals - an idea that perhaps had its origin in Kipling's unhappy childhood.

Printre cele mai iubite dintre toate clasicele pentru copii se numara povestile lui Mowgli, baiatul care a invatat legea junglei in timp ce a crescut printre o haita de lupi pe dealurile Seeonee din India. Publicata pentru prima data in 1894, cartea isi imagineaza un copil care traieste si infloreste intr-o comunitate de animale - o idee care poate si-a avut originea in copilaria nefericita a lui Kipling.
