"Rikki-Tikki-Tavi" by Jerry Pinkney is a beautifully illustrated adaptation of the classic tale by Rudyard Kipling. The story follows a brave mongoose named Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, who is rescued by a family living in India after being swept away by a flood. The mongoose quickly proves his worth as he protects his new home from two venomous cobras, Nag and Nagaina, who threaten the family and the surrounding garden. With courage and cleverness, Rikki engages in a fierce battle to save his human friends, showcasing themes of bravery, loyalty, and the cycle of life in the animal kingdom.
