Best.-Nr. 9788582850244PENGUIN. new. Personagem imortal da literatura o menino Mowgli foi achado na selva e criado por uma loba. Para viver na floresta ele precisava aprender mais do que caminhar sem fazer ru�do ou enxergar no escuro. Sua forma humana que de in�cio parecia uma desvantagem ajudou a transform�-lo em um caso �nico. Mowgli somou a sabedoria dos lobos e a intelig�ncia dos homens para viver uma inf�ncia repleta de aventuras e descobrimentos. Muitos especialistas consideram Os livros da selva uma contraposi��o do universo infantil �� vida adulta do trabalho. Ao longo de diversos contos a sofistica��o narrativa de Kipling e de seus personagens � capaz de emocionar leitores de todas as idades. PENGUIN unknown
