    If you recall in paragraph 25 killing a snake is a grown mongoose's business. This is his first step to growing up. Also if his mother fed him on snake, he would have natural eaten it. Now, since he had other snakes to fight, he didn't eat the snake. This shows how he has grown up. In paragraph 56 and 57, he is trying figure out when he should kill Nag. Paragraph 57 says, "'Now, if I kill him here, Nagaina will know; and if I fight him on the open floor, the odds are in his favor. What am I to do?' said Rikki-tikki-tavi." When Rikki-tikki attacked Karait he just attacked he didn't think about anything. That time he put himself at a bigger risk. This time he actually spent time to think. He considered his options and his surroundings. This shows that he has grown a little more. In paragraph 61 he kills Nag. In paragraph 104 he kills Nagaina. Paragraph 104 says, "...Rikki-tikki, covered with the dirt, dragged himself out of the hole leg by leg, licking his whiskers." He had just gone the rat-hole with his teeth in Nagaina.

    The movie did a good job at staying to the main story idea/objective. The problem in the movie was that the main ccharacter was that there were two snakes that were harrassing a bird named Darzee, that of which he had to face head on. This was quite similar to the story or printed version. One of the only thing that were differrebt were that rrikki killed anyvif the snakes he was going against, because the father did help eand some of them. The climax was when Rikki killed Nag, without any help from the dad. This is a way that rikki was visually biult up more to be the hero. This also a turningn point in the short film and helps lead into the final battle with Nagina. The resolution is when Nagina dies. Her death helps the reader feel more at peace, which is one of the reasons to have a happy endding or resolution, because the threat of the snkes are no longer in the garden. The overall movie was very simular to the book and did a very good job at expressing the main piont of the…

    Rikki-Tikki-Tavi by Rudyard Kipling is a very good story. The excerpt is about a Mongoose who is determined to kill the three snakes in the garden and save his family. The author claims that Rikki-tikki is a very curious and brave creature. It is also very hard to frighten Rikki-Tikki because mongoose’s are “eaten up from noose to tail with curiosity.” According to Kipling, Rikki-Tikki wound up in “the middle of a garden path” when a high summer flood washed him out of the burrow that he lived in. He met two cobras, Nag and Nagaina, he knew he had to kill them for the safety of his family and friends. The father in the story was almost killed by Nag in the bathtub but Rikki-Tikki came to the rescue and killed Nag first.…

    To start with, the role of Jesse is highly important in the movie because she is the narrator and for such reason the whole story-line is seen from her point of view. The importance of the character of Clover is greatly reduced for she is seen only a few times while in the book she plays a leading role as she expresses her point of view multiple times too. One last notable change is noticeable when the roles of Mr Pilkington and Mr Whymper are swapped because it was Whymper that made business with the pigs, not Pilkington.…
