1895 The Second Jungle Book 1st ed Rudyard Kipling Childrens INDIA Mowgli
“What is the Law of the Jungle? Strike first and then give tongue”
― Rudyard Kipling, The Jungle Book
Rudyard Kipling’s ‘The Jungle Book’ is a famous collection of short stories set in India of characters overcoming struggles such as abandonment, facing fears, and learning obedience or adherence to the law. It has been adapted to film, stage, and art and is still considered one of the best works of storytelling. First published in 1894, Kipling produced ‘The Jungle Book’ and then a second set of stories under the title ‘The Second Jungle Book.’ These books cover the well-known characters of Mowgli, Baloo, and Bagheera, as well as lesser-known characters such as Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. This ‘Second Jungle Book’ includes illustrations by J. Lockwood Kipling.
