Description
Here are five more stories about Mowgli, the boy who was brought up in the Indian jungle. They cover the years from his boyhood to the time he was a young man, and are full of the exciting and unusual adventures with animals which made THE JUNGLE BOOK so popular.
As well as the tales about Mowgli, there are three more stores, two also set in India (though very different) and one, in complete contrast, set in the Artic. As ever, animals play important parts.
Rudyard Kipling was a master storyteller, and THE SECOND JUNGLE BOOK, like its predecessor, THE JUNGLE BOOK has been recognised as a classic for young readers. This edition has been redesigned, reset and beautifully reillustrated in colour and black and white by Maurice Wilson, the eminent wildlife artist. It is a companion volume to the New Illustrated Edition of THE JUNGLE BOOK.
Hardcover, 256 pages. In very good preloved condition with the exception of modest fading and wear to the dustcover.
