The Jungle Book is about a boy named Mogli who is taken in by a den of wolves and brought up in the Jungle after the monstrous tiger Sher Khan tries to to kill the boy. Mogli grows up with these animal instincts and becomes the protector of the jungle. I don't really like this books, but it does have some good morals to it. The Graveyard book is fashioned after the Jungle Book, so once you read one you've read the other.
