Reviews

Cleveland/Akron Family, Mahoning Valley Parent (Youngstown, OH), Genesee Valley Parent (Pittsford, NY) ...
“This atmospheric retelling is digitally recorded and enhanced with authentic ethnic music. Sharma is a natural storyteller. His lilting narration invites listeners to experience Mowgli’s trials and triumphs not just hear about them.”
 
AudioFile Magazine...
“Madhav Sharma gives a mesmerizing reading. No reader does a better job giving voice to Mowgli's friends and foes and re-creating the atmosphere of the Indian jungle setting through thoughtful phrasing and dramatic pacing. The touch of an Indian accent in Sharma's voice is a plus.”
