"Adventure abounds in The Jungle Book and Other Classics, a collection of three of Rudyard Kipling's most popular books. In the stories gathered here, wild animals speak with the wisdom and insight of humankind, and young boys learn to master the skills they need to become men in their society. THE JUNGLE BOOK: The stories in this volume introduce Mowgli, the man-cub, a boy who is raised by wolves and who is instructed in the Law of the Jungle by his teachers: Bagheera the black panther, Baloo the bear, and Kaa the python. This book also features "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi," Kipling's classic tale of a heroic mongoose who fights to the death to protect the human family that has adpoted him. The SECOND JUNGLE BOOK: In these further adventures, Mowgli confronts his nemesis, Shere Khan the tiger, and seeks guidance from his animal family over whether to stay in the jungle or pursue a new path into human society. KIM: Kipling's last-published novel is the story of Kimball "Kim" O'Hara, the orphaned son of an Irish soldier who lives a vagabond's life on the squalid streets of Lahore. Wise beyond his years, and gifted with guile and cunning, Kim moves nimbly between the different cultures that shape his daily reality, attracting the attention of the British secret service, who recognize his invaluable skills as a spy." - from the inner front jacket flap.
