Born in Bombay, India, but raised in England from the age of five, Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) is today best known as the author of such classics of literature as The Jungle Book (1894), Kim (1902) and Just So Stories (1902). He returned to India in 1882 to become a journalist and local newspaper editor and began writing supernatural stories set in his native continent. Kipling was the first British writer to be award the Nobel Prize for Literature, in 1907.
Collection of stories by Rudyard Kipling, published in 1894. The Second Jungle Book, published in 1895, contains stories linked by poems. The stories tell mostly of Mowgli, an Indian boy who is raised by wolves from infancy and who learns self-sufficiency and wisdom from the jungle animals. The book describes the social life of the wolf pack and, more fancifully, the justice and natural order of life in the jungle. Among the animals whose tales are related in the work are Akela the wolf; Baloo the brown bear; Shere Khan, the boastful Bengal tiger who is Mowgli's enemy; Kaa the python; Bagheera the panther; and Rikki-tikki-tavi the mongoose. -- The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

簡單,可愛,喜歡毛各利
评分喜歡Kipling乾脆利落的語言。
评分【2016-11】讀的是Dover版,封麵是一個男孩一匹狼。裏麵有好幾則故事,除瞭狼族小男孩的故事,還有白色海豹、智鬥蟒蛇的貓鼬的故事。電影《奇幻森林》怎麼講呢,有點太討巧瞭,是個尋找自我的故事,比較好萊塢,而原著更清新、自然,沒那麼多討厭的大道理啦。
评分書比較久瞭,有很多詞都很久遠,和電影還是有些不一樣
评分不喜歡Toomai of the Elephants
