When a baby boy was left in the jungle, the wolves took him in and raised him as their own. Following the story of a human boy named Mowgli in a world full of wild animals and natural wonders, The Jungle Book describes the tensions between the animal kingdom and the human world. 

I enjoyed this book. It was fun to read and showed a lot about the world we live in regarding humans vs animals.  Includes the original illustrations by Stuart Tresilian in full color.
