The Jungle Book: The Graphic Novel (Campfire Graphic Novels) [Johnson, Dan, Kipling, Rudyard] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Jungle Book: The Graphic Novel (Campfire Graphic Novels) Review: Great for reluctant readers - Delighted with this book. My son is a reluctant reader but enjoys graphic novels. So, he read this happily. I've ordered a few of these campfire books and we're both very happy with them. Review: Terrific and faithful rendition of a literary classic - First off, the one star review here makes absolutely no sense and frankly I'm embarrassed to see it. This is not the Disney version, this is the original Rudyard Kipling story--as in, the actual author and creator of the Jungle Book partially for which he would win a Nobel Prize in Literature. This is a faithful rendition of the original story, and it does an excellent job of rendering a richly woven story into action-oriented panels. The Disney versions (old and new) are cartoony stories that void the real texture and meaning of the story and render it as so much brightly colored disposable mindlessness. If that type of pablum is what you want to feed your kids, look elsewhere. If by contrast you want an accessible introduction to one of the great entries into all-ages literature, this is one of the best choices on the market.

Not Disney
Totally disagree with the previous review, which sounds suspiciously like PR for the book. This book is NOT suitable for younger readers. Halfway in and it's all about animals killing each other and has Baloo repeatedly smacking Mowgli across the face until he finally cries. I got this for my 9 year old son - major FAIL. Needless to say we won't continue reading this book and can't recommend it to any parents. It should say in the product description that it's for 12 years and up.

Quality and quantity of graphics and papers are very good. Amazing product with best price.

I love the fact that it's Rudyard Kipling's full Jungle Book stories, and not the Disneyfied version. The graphics are unique and very well done without being "cute." This is a book that an adult can enjoy, not just for children. Very pleased with this purchase. :)
