The Jungle Book ~ Hardback ~ Joe Rhatigan

Rudyard Kipling's tale of a young boy lost in the jungles of India introduces young children to the magic of the original classic tale."The Jungle Book: Mowgli's Adventures" adapts Rudyard Kipling's timeless tale of a young boy lost in the jungles of India for young children. This delightfully written and illustrated book focuses on the magic of the jungle and the one-of-a-kind characters and fantastical situations that Mowgli finds himself in."The Jungle Book: Mowgli's Adventures "tells the simple story of Mowgli, who is raised by Mother and Father Wolf and taught the ways of the jungle by Baloo the bear.
