Summary
One hundred years ago, Rudyard Kipling travelled to India as a young journalist and wrote the fabulous stories of the Jungle Books about Mowgli, the jungle boy raised by a wolf pack, and his friends, Bagheera, the black panther, and Baloo, the bear. Kipling’s original stories ended before Mowgli became of age, and generations of listeners have wondered what happened to Mowgli as he grew up. The Third Jungle Book is Mowgli’s continuing story.
Pamela Jekel completes the stories Kipling began, with Baloo, Bagheera, Kaa, the python, and Hathi, the elephant, and introduces new adversaries and allies, such as Gargadan, the irascible rhino who runs the veldt like a drill sergeant; Hama, the wily and powerful King Cobra, and Shere Safid, the Ghost Tiger, son of Shere Khan. These new characters join the much-beloved familiar characters to accompany the jungle boy into manhood when he becomes Warden of the Forest with a son of his own.
