Rudyard Kipling's famous tale tells the story of Mowgli, the 'man-cub' rescued from the tiger, Shere Khan, and adopted by a wolf pack. As he grows up, Mowgli learns the ways of the jungle from Baloo the bear, Bagheera the black panther and Kaa the rock python. His life is full of adventure with the jungle creatures, but soon the time comes when he is forced to leave and take his place among his own people. A kind woman looks after Mowgli but she can't protect him from the superstitious villagers who believe his friendship with wolves is the result of sorcery. Mowgli's only escape is to return to the jungle. But even the jungle has become a dangerous place. This rich and entertaining dramatisation skilfully blends words with jungle sounds and music, and stars Eartha Kitt as Kaa, Freddie Jones as Baloo, Jonathan Hyde as Bagheera and Nisha Nayar as Mowgli.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling was born in Bombay, then British India, on December 30, 1865. He began his literary career in 1886 with the publication of the volume of poems Departmental Ditties, quickly establishing himself as one of the most popular writers in the United Kingdom, both in poetry and prose. In 1894 he released The Jungle Book, which would become a juvenile classic all over the world. The Second Jungle Book was published the following year and Kim, considered his most accomplished work, came out in 1901. In 1907 he became the first English-language author to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature and is, to this day, the youngest writer to whom the distinction has been awarded (he was 41 years old). Rudyard Kipling died in London on January 18, 1936.
