Jungelboken

Este libro me gustó más de lo que esperaba. Es muy diferente a la película de Disney, pero tiene su propia magia. Mowgli es un niño travieso con un profundo deseo de pertenecer, y aunque ser un “cachorro de hombre” lo hace distinto a su familia en la selva, también es lo que le permite encontrar su verdadero lugar. Baloo y Bagheera me encantaron—son leales, sabios y tiernos a su manera. Sin duda, Mowgli no habría llegado tan lejos sin ellos. Una lectura entretenida y sorprendentemente profunda.

There were plenty of Rudyard stories in this, and my favourites out of all of them were “The White Seal” and “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi”. Both stories were absolutely beautiful and the artwork in them took my breath away. The artwork throughout the entire book was absolutely stunning and the illustrator has done such a thorough and well done job with it all.I really love this book and very well might buy it later on in the year to add to my manga collection. After this introduction to Manga Classics, I can’t wait to read the rest of what Crystal S. Chan has produced in this series.
