A legendary tale of a young boy raised by wolves, this adventure has captivated generations. Lost in the jungle, the boy is pursued by the fierce, lame tiger Shere Khan. He finds refuge in a wolf den, where the wolves protect him and a she-wolf raises him alongside her pups. Due to his smooth, hairless skin, he is named Mowgli, meaning "frog." To be accepted into the wolf pack, Mowgli must be vouched for by two other animals: the wise old bear Baloo, who teaches the jungle laws to all young creatures, and the sleek black panther Bagheera. They become Mowgli's greatest guardians. Growing up among the pack, Mowgli becomes agile and strong, able to speak the language of animals. His adoptive wolf parents hope he will one day avenge them against Shere Khan. Mowgli is the central character in more than half of the stories in Rudyard Kipling's two-part "The Jungle Book," first published in 1894, with a sequel following in 1895. The stories of Mowgli have been published separately, capturing the imagination of readers young and old.
