A stunning re-creation of one of the greatest literary works ever published.

Rescued as an infant from Shere Khan, the tiger with the blazing eyes, Mowgli is brought up by the Laws of the Jungle. He learns how to hunt and how to speak the languages of the Jungle creatures. But Mowgli is a man, and as he grows up he learns that he must take his place among his own kind. First, though, he must face his life-long enemy to discover who is the true King of the Jungle.

Kipling's animal favourites are brought to life in stunning illustrations by the award-winning illustrator, Robert Ingpen.

Industry Reviews

Beautiful volume of Rudyard Kipling's classic children's adventure, gorgeously illustrated by award-winning Melbourne artist Robert Ingpen. Walker Books does children's books the way they should be done - lavishly, carefully and with the kind of attention to detail that destines them to become loved family treasures. * The Herald Sun *
