Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book brings back a flood of childhood memories. No one can deny that a part of us still yearns for the days when Mowgli took us on an adventure ride thrRough the treacherous forest where he made some loyal friends. The classic children's story book was made into a cool animation series as well as a live action film and each time was as refreshing as ever.
Kipling wrote The Jungle Book for his first daughter Josephine, who sadly died of pneumonia in 1899 at the age of 6.
