Synopsis "The Jungle Book"

Saved from the clutches of the tiger Shere Khan, a lost little boy named Mowgli is taken in by a family of wolves in the forest. As the human child grows up under the loving care of his wolf parents and brothers, he develops a special bond with Baloo the bear, Bagheera the panther, and Akela, the leader of his wolf-pack. Journey with Mowgli on his adventures and capers with the animals in the forest-- both friendly and dangerous-- as he fights to escape the evil tiger once again, while trying to reconcile his human roots with his wolf-upbringing!

Bombay, (1865-1936). Rudyard Kipling wrote novels, poems, and stories mainly set in India and Burma during the British rule. Kipling was a prolific and popular writer, and his literature always revolves around three axes: patriotism, the duty of the English to lead a life of intense activity, and the destiny of England, called to be a great empire. His insistence on this last aspect was undoubtedly an echo of the Victorian past, and severely damaged his reputation as a writer, despite being the first British author awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
