• BOOK ONE:The Jungle Book is a collection of stories by the English author Rudyard Kipling. This is the original 1894 edition that started it all. It includes the original illustrations which introduced the imagination of Kipling to a generation of readers. Most of the characters are animals such as Shere Khan the tiger and Baloo the bear, though a principal character is the boy or "man-cub" Mowgli, who is raised in the jungle by wolves. The stories are set in a forest in India. one place mentioned repeatedly is "Seonee" (Seoni), in the central state of Madhya Pradesh.BOOK TWO:The Second Jungle Book is a sequel to The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling. First published in 1895, it features five stories about Mowgli and three unrelated stories, all but one set in India, most of which Kipling wrote while living in Vermont. All of the stories were previously published in magazines in 1894-5, often under different titles. The 1994 film The Jungle Book used it as a source.
