The Jungle Books, EC - Rudyard Kipling - E-bog

When he wrote THE JUNGLE BOOKS in 1894, Kipling probably did not know that he was creating one of the most popular characters in fiction. The stories of Mowgli, the man-cub and his adventures with Bagheera the Panther, Baloo the Bear and Shere Khan the Tiger have captured the imagination of generations ever since. This volume contains a selection of the Mowgli stories together with the animal stories Rikki-tikki-tavi and The Undertaker. Kiplings stories combine adventure, humour and romance and reveal the authors political and philosophical concerns beneath his simple writing style.
