This children's classic includes "The Mowgli Stories", "The White Seal", and "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi". My favorite and the longest of the three was "The Mowgli Stories", which are the most famous work by Rudyard Kipling and the inspiration behind Disney's Jungle Book. The original story is full of colorful animal characters and Mowgli himself has a fierceness and loyalty that I loved to see.
Graphic: Animal death, Animal cruelty, and Blood
