I'm giving this two stars, instead of one, because I know for a fact I loved the story of Rikki Tikki Tavi as a child. However, as an adult, reading this was soooo painful. It's an older book and just the language being used and the way the words and sentences were put together. I couldn't enjoy it at all. It took me forever to get through it and I only did so I could be ready for book club on Saturday. And, it's only like 250 pages long!! uggggh ( )
Tells the story of friendship between man and beast. Saved from the jaws of the evil tiger Shere Khan, young Mowgli is adopted by a wolf pack and taught the law of the jungle by lovable old Baloo the bear and Bhageera the panther.
3.5* rounded up due to the marvelous illustrations.
I thought I had read this before but only the parts about Mowgli and Rikki-Tikki-Tavi were familiar so I am glad that I decided to reread this book. ( )
It was...good. Not really what I remembered from childhood. Kind of simple. Didn’t realize it was a bunch of different stories, I thought it was just all Mowgli and friends. Not sure it stands the test of time. ( )

Now Rann the Kite brings home the night That Mang the Bat sets free – The herds are shut in byre and hut For loosed till dawn are we. This is the hour of pride and power, Talon and tush and claw. Oh, hear the call! – Good hunting all That keep the Jungle Law!
