These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside: And the heat went on and on, and sucked up all the moisture, till at last the main channel of the Waingunga was the only stream that carried a trickle of water between its dead banks; and when Hathi, the wild elephant, who lives for a hundred years and more, saw a long, lean blue ridge of rock show dry in the very centre of the stream, he knew that he was looking at the Peace Rock, and then and there he lifted up his trunk and proclaimed the Water Truce, as his father before him had proclaimed it fifty years ago. ...To move down so cunningly that never a leaf stirred; to wade knee-deep in the roaring shallows that drown all noise from behind; to drink, looking backward over one shoulder, every muscle ready for the first desperate bound of keen terror; to roll on the sandy margin, and return, wet-muzzled and well plumped out, to the admiring herd, was a thing that all tall-antlered young bucks took a delight in, precisely because they knew that at any moment Bagheera or Shere Khan might leap upon them and bear them down. ...'Yet upon a night there was a dispute between two bucks-a grazing-quarrel such as ye now settle with the horns and the fore-feet-and it is said that as the two spoke together before the First of the First of the Tigers lying among the flowers, a buck pushed him with his horns, and the First of the Tigers forgot that he was the master and judge of the Jungle, and, leaping upon that buck, broke his neck.'Till that night never one of us had died, and the First of the Tigers, seeing what he had done, and being made foolish by the scent of the blood, ran away into the marshes of the North, and we of the Jungle, left without a judge, fell to fighting among ourselves; and Tha heard the noise of it and came back. ...Then it happened as Tha promised, for the Hairless One fell down before him and lay along the ground, and the First of the Tigers struck him and broke his back, for he thought that there was but one such Thing in the Jungle, and that he had killed Fear.

Considered a classic of children's literature, the book is among Kipling's best known works.

Download or read book The Second Jungle Book Unabridged written by Rudyard Kipling and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-09 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second Jungle Book is a sequel to The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling. First published in 1895, it features five stories about Mowgli and three unrelated stories, all but one set in India, most of which Kipling wrote while living in living in Vermont. All of the stories were previously published in magazines in 1894-5, often under different titles. The book is less well-known than the original. Chapters in The Second Jungle Book: "How Fear Came": This story takes place before Mowgli fights Shere Khan. During a drought, Mowgli and the animals gather at a shrunken river for a 'water truce', during which Hathi the elephant tells the other jungle people about how the tiger got his stripes and why they have a certain right. This story can be seen as a forerunner of the Just So Stories. "The Law of the Jungle" "The Miracle of Purun Bhagat": An influential Indian politician abandons his worldly goods to become an ascetic holy man. Later he must save a village from a landslide with the help of the local animals. "A Song of Kabir" "Letting In the Jungle": Mowgli has been driven out of the human village for witchcraft, and the superstitious villagers are preparing to kill his adopted parents Meshua and her (unnamed) husband. Mowgli rescues them and then prepares to take revenge. "Mowgli's Song against People" "The Undertakers": A crocodile, a jackal and an adjutant stork (erroneuously referred to as a crane in the story), three of the most unpleasant characters on the river, spend an afternoon bickering with each other until some Englishmen arrive to settle some unfinished business with the crocodile. "A Ripple Song" "The King's Ankus": Mowgli discovers a jewelled object which he later discards carelesslly, not realising that men will kill each other to possess it. Note: the first edition of The Second Jungle Book inadvertently omits the final 500 words of this story, in which Mowgli returns the treasure to its hiding-place to prevent further killings. Although the error was corrected in later printings, it was picked up by some later editions. "The Song of the Little Hunter" "Quiquern": A young Inuit hunter and his sled dog set out across the arctic ice on a desperate hunt for food to save their tribe from starvation, guided by the mysterious animal-spirit Quiquern. But Quiquern may not be what it seems.... "'Angutivaun Taina'" "Red Dog: The dhole, the red dog, are on the move. With the wolves and his friend Kaa the python, Mowgli undertakes the difficult task of stopping them. "Chil's Song" "The Spring Running": Mowgli, now almost 17 years old now, goes for a spring running, and runs into his former adoptive mother, Meshua. He is torn between staying with her and returning to the jungle, but he finally resolves to stay with her. "The Outsong"

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Second Jungle Book The stream is shrunk the pool is dry, And we be comrades, thou and I; With fevered jowl and dusty flank Each jostling each along the bank; And by one drouthy fear made still, Foregoing thought of quest or kill. Now neath his dam the fawn may see, The lean Pack-wolf as cowed as he, And the tall buck, unflinching, note The fangs that tore his fathers throat. The pools are shrunk-the streams are dry, And we be playmates, thou and I, Till yonder cloud-Good Hunting! loose The rain that breaks our Water Truce. He Law of the Jungle-which is by far the oldest law in the world-has arranged for almost every kind of accident that may befall the Jungle People, till now its code is as perfect as time and custom can make it.
