Brave Mongoose Rikki Courage Quotes

424 Words2 Pages

As Dolly Parton once said “You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try”. In this story Rikki went against the dangers of the garden. He fought snakes and he saved the garden. I feel like the author’s theme in this story is bravery and courage.

Rikki is the main character in the story. In the story it shows that Rikki is a brave mongoose who fight snakes. In the story it quotes “the great war that Rikki-tikki-tavi fought single-handed”. If Rikki fought a war single handedly he is truly a brave mongoose. Rikki-tikki fought the snakes that everyone feared. Both of these statements prove that Rikki-tikki is brave.

TS Nagaina, another character in the story is a king cobra who terrorizes living things.
