About this listen

Hunted by the fearsome tiger, Shere Khan, a defenceless young man-cub is taken in by a family of wolves who name him 'Mowgli'. Brought before Akela, the head of the wolf-pack, Mowgli finds acceptance but also earns the tiger's wrath, who swears that one day the boy will be his.

With the guidance of Baloo the bear and Bagheera the black panther, Mowgli must quickly learn the ways of the jungle if he is ever to survive.

In Audible's award-winning dramatisation of Kipling's classic tale, Mowgli's fate is magically, dramatically and faithfully brought to life by a cast that features the voice talents of Richard E Grant, Colin Salmon, Bill Bailey, Tim McInnerny and Celia Imrie.

This isn’t the jungle book

This isn’t the jungle book, bagera finds Mowgli, and just- its not the jungle book, if you’re looking for the jungle book, dont try this. But other than that pretty good.

Abridged and changed

Performance was good but it is disingenuous to title this the same as the original book. It is not the same and leaves out some of the story's aspects that I like most.
