Something has changed between Lala and Mowgli. To the boy’s great surprise, the young she-wolf, who was usually nasty and derisive, suddenly becomes docile. Bagheera does not approve of Lala’s new feelings for Mowgli. However, after Sura, who has courted Lala in vain, saves her life, she sees him in a new light. Meanwhile, Chil sounds the alarm: a serious danger is approaching in the guise of Grizzle and his gang.
