The Jungle Book
53 Installments
Come meet heroic mongoose Riki-Tiki-Tavi, the “man cub” Mowgli, Toomai the elephant handler, and many more delightful characters in these playful fables set in the vividly imagined India of Kipling’s youth. Each tale teaches a lesson to young readers, drawn from the jungle community’s tension between order and wildness.

Funny, when I was in school as a young boy, this book was required reading. I found it boring and confusing. As an adult I love it and have read the story many times.

The Jungle Book is good fun by itself and fun to contrast with the (considerably different) 1967 Disney animated feature. Also, it's apparently a very quick read. I say apparently because I just completed the 30th DailyLit chunk (of which 36 remain) and it seems I am now reading The White Seal, also by Kipling. A hidden bonus?

I never read this book as a kid, but I must say how well-written and received it was. Great for anybody!
