About this listen

Besides the boy Mowgli, the characters are animals, or rather, human archetypes in animal form. The stories, set in a forest in India, have themes like abandonment followed by fostering, law and freedom, respect and obedience.

Awful

Possibly the worst rendition of this story I've ever heard. Gil Anders is a terrible reader and is so dull to listen to, he's totally ruined one of my favourite stories. Don't waste your money on this.

Mechanical diction

Narrative is pretty dreadful, mechanical and full of mispronunciations. It isn’t in line with the authors ideas of story telling.
