Mowgli loves life in the Jungle. He gets to swing from trees, run through tall grass, and swim in rivers. He has many friends, like his playful brother wolf cubs, the spirited flying squirrels, and the honest rhinos. Best of all, he has Bagheera, the wise panther, and Baloo, the fun-loving bear. One day a great storm comes to the Jungle. Fortunately, Bagheera and Baloo know just what Mowgli should do. The only problem is they have two very different ideas--take shelter and dance in the rain. How will the man-cub spend his rainy day?
