I love Bagheera, he was sleek, sensuous, and so in control. I first read The Jungle Book when I was in my early teens or late pre-teens (11-13 or so) and have read it and reread it many times. The language is glorious, and I always regretted that Mowgli left the jungle behind him and went to live with his own kind. I would have opted for the jungle and my animal teachers if I had been given a preference.
What a nice way to start out your 100.
