"Oscar Wilde's The Happy Prince and Other Tales is a collection of stories for children each of which is so poignant and exquisite that they are as treasured by adults as they are by children. The stories included in this collection are The Happy Prince, The Nightingale and the Rose, The Selfish Giant, The Devoted Friend and The Remarkable Rocket."
"The Jungle Book (Vols 1 and 2) is a classic collection of animal fables. Although outwardly for children and fun to read, adults too will appreciate the important lessons of life in the jungle. Several stories deal with Mowgli, an orphaned child who is adopted and raised by wolves. Various animal mentors, such as the black panther Bagheera and the loveable, happy-go-lucky bear Baloo, teach him the 'Laws of the Jungle', which are intended to ensure the safety of individuals, families and communites. Once Mowgli is finally exposed to humans and their desructive behaviour, he begins to question his own identity and wonders where he really fits in"--Jacket."
