Book ID/图书代码: 08859317B98072
English Summary/英文概要: ’The Jungle Book’ is a rich and spirited collection of stories set deep in the Indian jungle. In these timeless adventures, we meet tigers and bears, snakes and mongooses, elephants and seals, and most famously Mowgli, the ’man-cub’ adopted by a pack of wolves who must learn the ways of jungle life, its colourful characters and its many dangers. Enveloping the reader in all the colour, sounds, and heat of the lush jungle, ’The Jungle Book’ speaks to the very essence of storytelling: its power to create wonder and teach us about our world. As we get to know the iconic characters of Mowgli, Baloo and Shere Khan in their natural habitats, we can also learn a little something about ourselves. Leave your preconceptions at the jungle’s edge. It’s time to explore.

Awards/获奖情况:“丛林之书是一本非常少见的书,我觉得我读它的时候,我就一直活在故事里。”(Michael Morpurgo)
“《丛林之书》的原创故事超越了迪斯尼所有的期望。在一个层面上,对人类幼崽的教育是纯粹的娱乐;在另一个层面上,丛林是Kipling生活哲学的象征,是一个道德操场,年轻人在其中学会在生活的藤蔓上荡漾。”(泰晤士报)
“Rudyard Kipling的《丛林之书》中炽热的文字仍然值得大声朗读。”(星期日报)
“大约一个世纪前,Rudyard Kipling以《丛林之书》、《正义故事》和《普尔山的冰球》等作品奠定了现代儿童文学的基础。这与当时的维多利亚时代的陈规相去甚远,它们是一个个狂野、壮丽的故事,仿佛就是那些一直让人们在洞穴里互相讲述的故事。”(每日电讯报)
“是什么让这个作品与其他经典作品不同呢?在灵感的瞬间,兰登豪斯想出了一个聪明的主意,他问阶段2的孩子们,他们可以添加什么别的元素来让孩子们想要阅读。会有用?好吧,这么说吧……我13岁的女儿宣布暑假里她必须读一本书,而且没有任何提示,她找到了那本《穿着条纹睡衣的男孩》……然后一直读了下去!如果你认识我13岁的女儿,你会发现这是非常了不起的。她读了成千上万的短信、博客和标签——但这是她上高中以来读过的第一本书,所有的经典名著万岁!”(国家英语教学协会)--此文本指的是此标题的已售完或不可用版本。
"The Jungle Book was one of those rare books that I felt I was actually living as I read it" (Michael Morpurgo)
"The original stories of The Jungle Book surpass all rollicking Disneyfied expectations. On one level, the Mancub’s education is pure entertainment; on another, the jungle is symbolic of Kipling’s philosophy of life, a moral playground in which the young learn to swing on the vines of life" (The Times)
"The incantatory text of Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Books still rewards reading aloud" (Sunday Times)
"Around a century ago, Rudyard Kipling laid the foundations of modern children’s literature with works such as The Jungle Book, Just So Stories and Puck of Pook’s Hill. Far from the fusty Victorian conventions of the time, they were wild, magnificent stories that felt as though they’d always existed, stories people might have told each other in the caves" (Daily Telegraph)
"So what makes these different to any other set of classics? In a moment of inspiration Random House had the bright idea of actually asking Key stage 2 children what extra ingredients they could add to make children want to read. And does it work? Well, put it this way...my 13-year-old daughter announced that she had to read a book over the summer holiday and, without any prompting, spotted The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas...and proceeded to read it! Now, if you knew my 13-year-old daughter, you would realise that this is quite remarkable. She reads texts, blogs and tags by the thousand - but this is the first book she has read since going to high school, so all hail Vintage Classics!"
