@ 1:30 pm, TEA TIME with the JUNGLE BOOK
The tales in the Rudyard Kipling's "The Jungle
Book" are fables, using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral
lessons. The verses of The Law of the Jungle, for example, lay down rules for
the safety of individuals, families, and communities. Kipling put in them
nearly everything he knew or "heard or dreamed about the Indian jungle.
The best-known of them are the three stories revolving
around the adventures of Mowgli, an abandoned "man cub" who is raised
by wolves in the Indian jungle. The most famous of the other four stories are
probably "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi", the story of a heroic mongoose, and
"Toomai of the Elephants", the tale of a young elephant-handler. As
with much of Kipling's work, each of the stories is followed by a piece of
verse.
