  • Title          : The Jungle Book

  • Publication information: The Jungle Book (literally: "Book of the Jungle", 1894) is a collection of stories written by Rudyard Kipling. These stories were first published in the magazine between 1893 - 1894. The original publication also contained illustrations, some by Rudyard's father, John Lockwood Kipling.

The Jungle Book is a collection of stories.

The purpose of writing this article is to:

- Knowing Mowgli's character

- Know the story of Mowgli who was raised and adopted by wolves in the forest

  • Thesis Statement Indicating Writer's Main Reaction to the Work
  • According to my group, the reason the author wrote the story in "The Jungle Book" was the depiction of the Forest in the author's home country, India. The author includes anthropomorphic to provide moral lessons. The Law of the Jungle, as it describes the rules for the safety of individuals, families and communities. Apart from that, there is another reason, namely, Jungle students have been used as motivational books by the standby Scouts, junior elements in the Scout Movement. The use of the forest concept is a direct application of Baden-Powell (founder of the Scout Movement)

II. Summary Or Description Of The Work

The Jungle Book is a timeless classic that combines myth, adventure and morals in a story of friendship between humans and animals. Once upon a time, Mowgli (Neel Sethi) was a human child who was left behind in the forest because his father was killed by a tiger, Shere Khan (Idris Elba).

Before being killed, his father still had time to attack Shere Khan with a fire torch so that Mowgli was also free from the attacks of the fleeing tiger.

Mowgli, finally found by a panther, Bagheera (Ben Kingsley), who then brought Mowgli, the human child, to be raised by the wolf clan led by Akela (Giancarlo Esposito).

However, Shere Khan's grudge against Mowgli's father which has damaged part of his face also makes him continuously target Mowgli, who is in the protection of a pack of wolves.

When Mowgli has grown up, the council of the wolves meets to decide what to do with the human, because even though he has been taken care of by them since childhood, he is believed to be safer if he is in the human-village.
