The Jungle Book (Illustrated with Interactive Elements)
by Rudyard Kipling
Received a copy of this book through a Goodreads Giveaway.
Four Stars
Liked:
The artwork and interactive elements within the book. It is a beautiful book to look at and fun to read. I read it to my children and they looked forward to each and every picture. They got really excited for the next interactive and would wait patiently while I read. It made it fun and more involved to have these features.
The stories. I've never read the original Jungle Book before. I was amazed! I get where the movie came from, but it only takes bits and pieces from the original and weaves it into its own story. I liked the originals more. The extra tales that aren't included in the movie were fun to read because I knew nothing about them. Classic tales that my children and I all enjoyed.
The poems after each chapter. Not only were they surrounded in artwork, but also a fun additional to the story.
Dislikes:
The tissue paper or cardboard protecting the interactive elements would slip out most of the time and it was annoying having to readjust it, but it was good to have it there to protect those parts of the book as well as the printed pages.
Enjoyable read. When my kids are begging me to read the next chapter in a book that I like reading, it is definitely a four star read and this was one of those books.
Thank you for a beautiful, classic and enjoyable read.
