Mowgli's adventures are juxtaposed with other animal stories set in the British Empire, ranging from the heroic battle of 'Rikki-tikki-tavi' and the Himalayan pastoral 'Purun Bhagat' to the drama of survival in 'The White Seal'.

The Jungle Book (1894) is a collection of stories by the English author Rudyard Kipling. Most of the characters are animals such as Shere Khan the tiger and Baloo the bear, though a principal character is the boy or "man-cub" Mowgli, who is raised in the jungle by wolves. The stories are set in a forest in India; one place mentioned repeatedly is "Seonee" (Seoni), in the central state of Madhya Pradesh. A major theme in the book is abandonment followed by fostering, as in the life of Mowgli, echoing Kipling's own childhood.

Rudyard Kipling's classic comes to life in this brilliantly performed classic! Run with Mowgli through the tangled Indian Jungle as he wages war against the great, lame tiger, Shere Khan. Hunt with Kaa in the twilight, stalk through the forest on noiseless feet with Bagheera, and learn the Law of the Jungle and the maxims of old Baloo the Brown bear.

The Fantasy Fiction Collection contains: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, The Jungle Book, Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There, Peter and Wendy, and Alice's Adventures Under Ground.

First published in 1895, it contains five stories about Mowgli and three unrelated pieces. Mowgli, the boy raised by wolves, is older and wiser but still learns more of life and survival in the Indian jungle, in the company of well-known characters like Baloo the brown bear and Bagheera the black panther.

Kipling's Jungle Book remains popular and has seen many adaptations to film and other media. Besides the boy Mowgli, all the characters are animals or rather human archetypes in animal form. The stories, set in a forest in India, have themes like abandonment followed by fostering, and promotes the ideas of law and freedom, respect and obedience. Even critics of Kipling's supposed imperialism admit to the extraordinary power of his storytelling.

Mowgli returns to the human village and is adopted by Messua and her husband who believe him to be their long-lost son Nathoo. But he has trouble adjusting life as a human. Meanwhile Shere Khan still wants to kill him.

Deep in the Indian jungle, a boy is raised by wolves with the help of Baloo the bear and Bagheera the black panther. Soon he has to fight the tiger, Shere Khan. Who will win?
