Editorial Review:
Rudyard Kipling's classic story comes to delightful life with this wonderful animated short combining the estimable talents of narrator Orson Welles and director Chuck Jones (the genius behind many of the best Warner Bros. cartoons). Blending action, humor, and a few (thankfully noncloying) songs, this daydream of an adventure from the author of The Jungle Book details the efforts of a frisky mongoose sworn to defend his adopted family from a garden full of cobras. This is bound to fascinate and entertain both kids and adults who are interested in nature's struggles, although parents may wish to watch it with younger children who possess a fear of snakes. --Andrew Wright

Rating:  - Great Item, Questionable Shipping
5 stars for the product, -1 star for delivery company.
The DVD actually plays fine from what I can tell, but given that it had popped out of the holder inside of the sealed case implies it had to have been jostled pretty hard, and because of that, it picked up several scratches.
I'm not even sure what shipping agency was used because it wasn't the US postal service and there were no discerning markings on the delivery label. We found the package lying randomly on our front ... Read More
Rating: - An old favorite
I enjoyed these videos so much as a child and now my children love them, too. The animation for the Kipling adaptations is gorgeous!
Rating: - A must have for children of all ages
Having grown up watching all these (6 shows) first run I was thrilled to purchase this. I bought one copy for myself, my father, and my friend. His 7 year old Daughter is absolutely enchanted with the Rikki Tikki Tavi story. She has watched it everyday for a month straight. These stories are based on the actual books and Chuck didn't embellish one bit. Disney made me love "the Jungle Book" but Chuck Jones made me love Kipling. The cricket in times square is no literary slouch either!
Rating: - chuck jones collection
Having been a child of the 70's growing up, it was with great pleasure to have the opportunity to purchase non-Bugs Bunny cartoons done by Chuck Jones. I have always loved Riki Tiki Tavi and Chester the Cricket and it brings back wonderful holiday memories to see these shows available. For any parent or individual seeking classic literary tales, then I heartily recommend this collection.
Rating: - Seen it 10,000 Times in one day!
Ever since my child opened this DVD, it has been playing over and over! Seems like a zillon times already! But, since it is good old fashion cartoons, it is ok. Good morals. Good stories.
