The Jungle By Sinclair

            The book The Jungle by Upton Sinclair was published by Grossett and Dunlap in New York, 1906. The purpose of this book is to understand the importance of adult care and teaching. If you are not taught as a young child how to become a successful human being then you will not be successful. If you are treated as an animal (as those in the book) you will become a human but only to know what the rights and wrongs are for an animal. The human being is a species that needs to be cared for their entire child hood. There are only a group of people that I would recommend this book to, and that is those who don't understand the amount of importance that there is in raising your young with the proper manners. If you treat your kids as though they have no importance in the world and don't teach them right from wrong, or allow schooling then they are going to grow up with the exact same knowledge as they had the very first day they were born. .
             This book was easier to read than I thought it would have been considering how the names were a little odd. This book was kind of easier to read because of the logical order that it was printed in. while reading The Jungle I realized just how much care and teaching we really do need in this world. Without all of the teaching and care that we are given as young children, we would be not even a day smarter than the day before. We wouldn't have learned anything. .
             Although this book doesn't have an index it is barely needed. I enjoyed reading this book and wish that others have the chance to read it as well as I did. I defiantly recommend this book to those who don't understand the importance of learning the correct way of human life.
