Price: $6.18
Customer Review:
This is a review I previously wrote for four books in the Whole Story Series (Call of the Wild, The Jungle Book, Treasure Island, and Around the World in Eighty Days). I hope someone finds this helpful in their decision to purchase these books. :)

| | 3. |  | Rikki-Tikki-Tavi
from HarperCollins
Price: $3.20
Customer Review:
There are two schools of thought regarding illustrated adaptations of literary classics. One school holds that stories that are simplified for early listeners can be ruined in the process, because the listener's first experience doesn't contain the beauty and depth of the original. The second school... more info

| | 4. | [no image] | Classic: Just So Stories.
from Smithmark Publishers
Price: $14.10
Customer Review:
These stories have been a joy in my life from childhood to now in my 7th decade. A great deal of the pleasure is in the reading aloud. Children love the alliterations, the completely fanciful ideas. Parents adore the superb English -- even the crazy made-up words! Don't waste a minute and read these... more info

| | 5. |  | The Jungle Book (Unabridged Classics)
from Sterling
Price: $5.73
Customer Review:
The Jungle book story was great as I expected as was Rikki Tikki but I did see a noticeable drop off in the other stories included in this book. While their message is important, the same quality writing found with the previously was lacking in the rest. Kipling is a great author and I look forward... more info

| | 8. |  | The Jungle Book
from Palazzo Editions
Price: $11.77
Customer Review:
This is undoubtedly a beautiful book, but it should definitely be noted that it only contains the first half of Mowgli's story (i.e., through Shere Khan chapter only) - the text seems unabridged that far, but parts of both Jungle Books are missing - which I for one was misled about from other... more info

| | 9. |  | The Man Who Would Be King
from Echo Library
Price: $4.00
Customer Review:
Kipling's "The Man Who Would be King" is an excellent read regarding both the decline of English Imperialism and Victorian literature as well. The book is a parable foreshadowing the consequences of British imperialist practices.
The story's protagonist reflects Kipling's own time spent in... more info

from BiblioBazaar
Price: $33.99
Customer Review:
This collection was first published in 1890, and is a collection of the stories in a few previous volumes -- the book that first made him famous, _Plain Tales from the Hills_, and other books of stories set in India. It isn't a *complete* collection, though, and several gems from those volumes (most... more info
