  Twelve-year-old Emmie is working to raise money for a tricked-out wheelchair to get serious about WCMX, when a mishap on a poorly designed ramp at school throws her plans into a tailspin. Instead of replacing the ramp, her school provides  
  her with a kind but unwelcome aide and, seeing a golden media opportunity, launches a public fundraiser for her new wheels. Emmie loves her close-knit rural town, but she can’t shake the feeling that her goals—and her choices—suddenly  
  aren’t hers anymore. With the help of her best friends, Emmie makes a plan to lift her dreams off the ground—and show her community what she wants, what she has to give, and how ready she is to do it on her own terms.

  The Jungle Book

  "Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky."
  
  Enter the Seoni region of India, where a "man-cub" named Mowgli is raised by a pack of wolves. Under the watchful eyes of the wise black panther Bagheera and the sleepy brown bear Baloo, Mowgli learns the strict codes of conduct that keep the wild in balance. But the jungle is a place of peril; the tiger Shere Khan seeks the boy's life, and the lawless Bandar-log monkeys threaten the peace. Beyond the Mowgli stories, Kipling takes readers across the globe—from the heroic stand of a mongoose in Rikki-Tikki-Tavi to the frozen bravery of a white seal. These are timeless tales of courage, duty, and finding one's place in an unforgiving world.
  
  The "Man-Cub" Dilemma: The core of the book is Mowgli's struggle between his human nature and his lupine upbringing. Kipling expertly handles the tragedy of a boy who is "too human for the wolves and too wild for the humans," exploring the universal theme of searching for an identity that spans two worlds.
  
  The Philosophy of the Wild: Unlike many animal stories, Kipling's creatures are not mere caricatures. They live by the Law of the Jungle, a rigorous moral and physical code that emphasizes the strength of the pack over the individual. It is a philosophy that has been studied for over a century as a reflection of human social and political systems.
  
  Why It Is a Global Masterpiece: The Jungle Book remains an essential read because of its rhythmic, hypnotic prose and its deep respect for nature. It is an adventure that satisfies the imagination while posing serious questions about civilization, tradition, and what it truly means to be "free."
