Among the best loved of all childrenтАЩs classics, Rudyard KiplingтАЩs The Jungle Book is set among a community of animals in the jungles of India, where Kipling was born and grew up. Three of the stories feature the adventures of an abandoned тАЬman cub,тАЭ a boy named Mowgli, who is raised by wolves in the jungle. Other well-known stories in the collection include тАЬRikki-Tikki-Tavi,тАЭ the tale of a heroic mongoose who outwits vicious cobras in order to save his human benefactors, and "Toomai of the Elephants," the story of a ten-year-old elephant-handler.This edition includes black-and-white illustrations by Kurt Wiese and William Henry Drake.

Rudyard Kipling was born in Bombay, India to British parents on December 30, 1865. In 1871, Rudyard and his sister, Trix, aged three, were left to be cared for by a couple in Southsea, England. Five years passed before he saw his parents again. His sense of desertion and despair were later expressed in his story тАЬBaa Baa, Black SheepтАЭ (1888), in his novel The Light that failed (1890), and his autobiography, Something of Myself (1937). As late as 1935 Kipling still spoke bitterly of the тАЬHouse of DesolationтАЭ at Southsea: тАЬI should like to burn it down and plough the place with salt.тАЭ
At twelve he entered a minor public school, the United Services College at Westward Ho, North Devon. In Stalky and CO. (1899) the myopic Beetle is a self-caricature, and the days at Westward Ho are recalled with mixed feelings. At sixteen, eccentric and literary, Kipling sailed to India to become a journalist. His Indian experiences led to seven volumes of stories, including Soldiers Three (1888) and Wee Willie Winkie (1888).
At twenty-four he returned to England and quickly tuned into a literary celebrity. In London he became close friends with an American, (Charles) Wolcott Balestier, with whom he collaborated on what critics called a тАЬdime store novel.тАЭ Wolcott died suddenly in 1891, and a few weeks later Kipling married WolcottтАЩs sister, Caroline. The newlyweds settled in Brattleboro, Vermont, where Kipling wrote The Jungle Book (1895), and most of Captains Courageous (1897). By this time KiplingтАЩs popularity and financial success were enormous.
In 1899 the Kiplings settled in Sussex, England, where he wrote some of his best books: Kim (1901), Just So Stories (1902), and Puck of Pooks Hill (1906). In 1907 he received the Nobel Prize for literature. By the time he died, on January 18 1936, critical opinion was deeply divided about his writings, but his books continued to be read by thousands, and such unforgettable poems and stories as тАЭGunga Din,тАЭ тАЬIf,тАЭ тАЬThe Man Who Would Be King,тАЭ and тАЬRikki-Tikki-TaviтАЭ have lived on in the consciousness of succeeding generations.
