Book Reviews of The Jungle Book

Book Review: only partially the real thing!
Summary: 4 Stars

This is undoubtedly a beautiful book, but it should definitely be noted that it only contains the first half of Mowgli's story (i.e., through Shere Khan chapter only) - the text seems unabridged that far, but parts of both Jungle Books are missing - which I for one was misled about from other review(s).

Summary of The Jungle Book

The story of Mowgli, the Man-Cub raised by wolves in the jungles of India, is one of the greatest literary works of all time. This magnificent edition of Kipling's masterpiece is illustrated by Hans Christian Andersen Medalist Robert Ingpen.
Rescued as an infant from the savage tiger Shere Khan, Mowgli is reared by a pack of wolves. His days are filled with excitement and danger as he learns the ways of the jungle from Bagheera the panther and the wise bear, Baloo. As the boy grows, he also learns he must take his place among his own kind-but first, he must face Shere Khan in a battle of wits and strength to discover the true King of the Jungle..Along with the story of Mowgli are other jungle tales-including "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi," "The White Seal," and "Toomai of the Elephants"-lending depth and diversity to our understanding of Kipling's India.
