The Jungle Book is a collection of stories by Rudyard Kipling, published in 1894. The book follows the adventures of Mowgli, a young boy who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. The stories are set in a forest in India and feature a cast of animal characters, including Shere Khan the tiger, Baloo the bear, and Bagheera the panther. The tales use animals in an anthropomorphic manner to teach moral lessons and explore themes such as abandonment, fostering, law, freedom, and the human condition. The book is known for its richly imagined natural world and the complex relationship between Mowgli and both the jungle and the human world.
