I just adore books, especially beautiful books filled with exciting stories. I love to read them aloud with my children. Recently, I received Into The Jungle: Stories for Mowgli<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, and it is definitely a book that is both beautiful, and filled with exciting stories.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Written by Katherine Rundell<\/strong>, this wise and witty companion to Rudyard Kipling\u2019s 1894 classic<\/strong> is likewise a series of connected stories about the man-cub Mowgli and his adventures among the animals in the Indian jungle. It includes all the original favorites like Baloo and Bagheera and gives female characters, like Mother Wolf, a more prominent role in Mowgli\u2019s upbringing. The timely theme of the possibility of understanding and empathy across species, cultures, and genders will resonate with contemporary readers.<\/p>\n Check out my video below for an in-depth look at Into The Jungle: Stories For Mowgli<\/strong><\/em><\/a>:<\/p>\n
