The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling
4.0

Read Harder Challenge 2019: A Book In Which An Animal Or Inanimate Object Is A Point-Of-View Character

Kipling's Jungle Book has been on my TBR pile for years and I'm not sure why I haven't read it until now, especially since I have this odd interest in feral children. I didn't anticipate the jungle language being so Shakespearean with black panthers, bears and rock snakes speaking with thou, thee, thy, thine & ye. But there ye have it. ♡
