Rescued as a baby from Shere Khan, the tiger with the blazing eyes, Mowgli is brought up by the Law of the Jungle.

He learns how to hunt and how to speak the languages of the jungle creatures. As he embarks on a series of thrilling escapades, Mowgli encounters such unforgettable creatures as Bagheera, the graceful black panther, Baloo the kindly brown bear, and Kaa, the deadly snake with the hypnotic stare.

But Mowgli is a man, and he knows that one day he must take his place among his own kind. First, he must face his life-long enemy, Shere Khan, in a battle of wits and strength to discover who is the true King of the Jungle.

A full-colour illustrated edition of one of the world's best loved stories.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was born in Bombay, India, but was educated in England. In 1882 he returned to India and worked as a journalist. While there, he created stories, sketches and poems, which made him an instant literary celebrity. The Jungle Book, published in 1894, became a children's classic all over the world.

Robert Ingpen was born in 1936 in Geelong, Australia, and still lives and works nearby in Barwon Heads. In 1986 he was awarded the Hans Christian Andersen Medal for his contribution to children's literature and he has been honoured with Membership of the Order of Australia.
