The Complete Mowgli Stories

"The man’s cub is mine, Shere Khan—mine to me! He shall not be killed. He shall live to run with the Pack and to hunt with the Pack; and in the end… he shall hunt thee!" ~ Raksha, Mother Wolf

Look Inside the Book

The Law of the Jungle forbids the animals to kill Man, but Shere Khan cannot forget that little Mowgli escaped right from under his blood-soaked muzzle. But there’s more to being a man cub than Mowgli can learn from the Seeonee Wolf Pack—and the lame tiger isn’t the only one eager for him to slip up. Killer Red Dogs, the feckless Monkey People, and unscrupulous members of Mowgli’s true species also wish to claim the Jungle as their own, whether or not Mowgli is in the way.
