Summary "The Wonders of the Jungle, Book Two" by Sarath Kumar Ghosh is an educational and narrative account written in the early 20th century. This work aims to engage children by detailing the lives of various jungle animals, particularly exploring the social structures and behaviors of elephants and big cats like tigers and lions. It combines elements of storytelling with informative insights, fostering an appreciation for wildlife and the importance of ecological balance. At the start of the book, the author prepares readers for a continuing exploration of the jungle's wonders, beginning with the governance of elephant herds, which are likened to a republic with a president. The narrative explains the presidential duties of leading their herd to food and water, maintaining order, and protecting against dangers. It emphasizes the wisdom and instincts of the leader elephants in making decisions that ensure the well-being of their community—a theme that presents a moral lesson on leadership and responsibility. The tone is inviting and encourages young readers to “think” while learning about the natural world. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
