Description
Fiction. Short Stories. HTML: Even if you're a die-hard fan of the Disney animated classic The Jungle Book, you may not know that the tales upon which the popular movie was based comprised a significant proportion of British author Rudyard Kipling's creative output. In addition to the Mowgli tales, Kipling composed dozens of other short stories about virtually every aspect of life in the jungle, the best of which are presented in this collection..

While, in general, I like Rudyard Kipling's writing, the quality of the stories in this book is patchy. That's my assessment. Some stories have power; some have pathos, and others were a bit muddled.
Moreover, not all the stories were set in India. Some were set in England, and this is fine.

However, in this case, "Tales From India" is not a great title for the book. Show Less
