A ""splendiferous"" introduction to the story of the wolf-boy, with eye-bugging full-color illustrations by William Bartlett which make the most of the jungle background and the slant-eyed, teeth-baring movements of the beasts. We think that the reader will be genuinely sorry when Mowgli leaves the mighty wolves and panther for the world of men, and the beloved Kipling story, plus these dynamic illustrations is sure to carry again its ageless animal appeal. We hope it leads young readers to the complete text. A large Big Treasure Book with laminated covers.
