Imagine growing up among wolves, being friends with a panther and a bear, and hunting the most fearsome animal in the wild--the man-killing tiger Shere Khan. Rudyard Kipling portrays the exciting and adventurous jungle upbringing of Mowgli in this timeless classic. Still amazingly contemporary even though it was written more than 100 years ago, the pacing, language, and characters will keep readers young and old turning the pages, and then begging for more. Originally published in two volumes, this edition collects all the Mowgli stories and adds the very popular Rikki-Tikki-Tavi and Toomai of the Elephants. This edition will feature an introduction by Newbery-award winner Neil Gaiman. "From the Hardcover edition."

想象一下，在狼群中长大，与豹和熊成为朋友，并猎杀野外最可怕的动物--杀人不眨眼的老虎谢尔汗。鲁德亚德-吉卜林在这部永恒的经典作品中描绘了莫格利在丛林中的刺激和冒险的成长经历。尽管它写于100多年前，但仍然具有惊人的现代性，其节奏、语言和人物将使老少读者翻开书页，然后乞求更多。该版本最初分两卷出版，收集了所有的莫格利故事，并增加了非常受欢迎的《Rikki-Tikki-Tavi》和《大象的Toomai》。这个版本将由纽伯瑞奖得主尼尔-盖曼作序。"来自精装版"。
