Description

Mowgli is older, and the Seeonee pack still lives by Law. Five further tales follow him through fear's origin, the king's ankus, the red dogs, and the spring he leaves the wolves, with Kaa and Hathi beside him. Other stories reach beyond the jungle: a saint, crocodiles, Arctic hunters. Verse wraps each piece, and the man-cub's last education among the pack still answers to the same maker.

Author

Rudyard Kipling (1865–1936) was one of the supreme storytellers in English — a Nobel laureate whose Jungle Books, Kim, and Just So Stories made childhood myth out of British India and the wider imperial world. He wrote with an unmatched ear for speech, rhythm, and craft: animals that argue like people, boys who learn the roads, ballads that stick in the mind.
