the jungle book

The Jungle BookThe Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

i took up the book because i was reminded of my childhood where i remembered enjoyed reading the children’s version of The Jungle Book which mostly tell the tale of Mowgli and Bagheera, Baloo and Shere Khan. Just that i realised i never read the original story by Rudyard Kipling. but reading this original took quite a toll on my imagination because i am not a fan of animalistic stories. i only stayed on through Mowgli because there is human element in the story.

in any case, this is considered a classic and if i were to read it for some literary review, i am sure there are many layers of issues and meanings behind characters and events.
