4.0 out of 5 stars Rikki-Tikki-Tavi April 19 2004
Format:Hardcover
In the story, Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is a mongoose. When a flood washed him away from his home, he is adopted by Teddy and his family. While exploring the garden, he meets Nag and Nagaina, two deadly cobras. Later that night, he overhears the cobras' plot to enter Teddy's house and kill his family. When Nag and Nagaina get inside, Rikki attacks and kills Nag in Teddy's bathroom. The next day, Rikki finds Nagaina's eggs on the ground and begins crushing all of the eggs except for one. When Nagaina threatens to kill Teddy, Rikki distracts her by threatening to destroy her last egg. Then, Rikki chased Nagaina into her hole in the garden and kills her. From then on, Teddy's family hailed Rikki-Tikki-Tavi as a hero for saving them from the two deadly cobras.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful story Mar 3 2003
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
A young mongoose got swept away from his family by a flood and ended up with a person family. They took very good care of him and he loved them. Cobras who were called Nag and Nagaina lived in the garden. Rikki Tikki Tavi protected the family from them. There were birds, too, who were friends of the mongoose. One of their babies fell out of the nest and Nag ate it. My brother and I loved this book. Hannah, aged 7

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful story/illustrations Oct 6 2010
Format:Paperback
I read it to all my Div II Elementary students. It was serious, without being overly-frightening. Wonderful language, illustrations. They enjoyed the 'epic' feel when Darzi sang to the hero, Rikki-Tikki.This is a fabulous read-aloud.
