発行者による作品情報
'The Jungle Book' is a collection of stories by English Nobel laureate Rudyard Kipling. The tales in the book are fables, using animals as talking characters to give moral lessons. The stories revolve around the adventures of an abandoned 'man cub' Mowgli who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. The boy is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle with the help of Baloo the bear and Bagheera the black panther, and then has to fight the tiger Sher Khan. The story is very interesting and captivating with an underlying moral tone.
The original flavour of this classic has been carefully retained in this abridged version.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Adapted by Powell from Kipling's The Jungle Book and The Second Jungle Book, this interactive entry in the Seek and Find Classics series invites readers to take part in the unfolding story. In more than a dozen seek-and-find scenes keyed to significant moments in the plot, children are asked to find 10 objects and animals (and Mowgli, of course) in Frenna's cinematic cartoons. The retro vibe of her artwork at times recalls the Disney adaptation but still offers a distinctive spin on the characters and drama of the tales. Also available: Alice in Wonderland. Ages 8 up.
