The Jungle Book: 14 Classic Short Stories with 20 Illustrations and Free Audio Files.
Rudyard Kipling
The Jungle Book (1894) is a collection of fourteen short stories by the English author Rudyard Kipling. The tales in the book are fables; he uses animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral lessons – the verses of The Law of the Jungle. For example, laying down rules for the safety of individuals, families, and communities. The best-known of them are the three stories revolving around the adventures of an abandoned "man cub" Mowgli, who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. Another is "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi," the story of a heroic mongoose, and also "Toomai of the Elephants," the tale of a young elephant-handler. As with much of Kipling's work, each of the stories is preceded by a piece of verse, and succeeded by another.
Highlights of this edition are:
• 14 classic short stories.
• 20 illustration and photos.
• A free web link to an audio copy of the book.
• It is formatted for ease of use and enjoyment on your nook reader.
• An active (easy to use) Table of Contents listing every chapter accessible from the nook menu.
• Perfect formatting in rich text compatible with nook's Text-to-Speech features.
• Plus, About the Author section.
• 260 pages (in the nook format) for a very low price.
This book is unabridged (unedited) and the story appears as it was first published in 1894.
