A boy raised by wolves must find his place in a jungle that sees him as prey.
Mowgli, a boy raised by wolves, navigates the dangers of the jungle with guidance from Baloo and Bagheera. As some animals see him as a threat or prey, Mowgli must discover where he truly belongs. Will he find acceptance among the elephants, snakes, and monkeys, or is he destined to be an outsider forever? This retelling invites young readers to explore Mowgli's thrilling journey and the challenges of finding one's identity in a world that doesn't always welcome you.
