Riassunto

Kipling's classic Mowgli tales spring to new life with the help of stunning artwork by acclaimed illustrator Nicola Bayley.

First published in 1984 in THE JUNGLE BOOK, these three stories tell of Mowgli's upbringing by wolves in the Indian jungle. When he is a baby they save him from the tiger Shere Khan, then teach him the law and language of the jungle animals, with help from two other unforgettable characters, Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther. In this classic edition, Mowgli's adventures are illustrated in ravishing and exquisite detail by Nicola Bayley.
