YOUR chance to continue your children's experience of classic stories returns once again with today's edition of the Echo.
Last week thousands of readers got hold of their free copy of Pinocchio, and this week sees the much-loved family favourite The Jungle Book on offer for just £2.99.

All you need to do is cut out the coupon in today's Echo (Thursday March 4) and hand it to a participating retailer. There will be another token for a third book in the series in next week's paper.

The Jungle Book is the second in a series of 25 children's classics which takes in such titles as Treasure Island and Robin Hood.

The Jungle Book 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 lovable, happy-go-lucky bear Baloo, teach him the 'Laws of the Jungle', which are intended to ensure the safety of individuals, families and communities.

Once Mowgli is finally exposed to humans and their destructive behaviour, he begins to question his own identity and wonders where he really fits in. It's a timeless story and one that children of all ages love.

So make sure you redeem your voucher now – and keep collecting!
