  1. Genre: Classic Fiction Author’s Purpose – Entertainment Reading Skill: Drawing Conclusions Compiled by Terry Sams, Piedmont

  2. Summary Rikki-tikki-tavi has a big job to do.  This mongoose must kill all the snakes that live in the house and garden of Teddy and his mother and father.  The largest snakes are two cobras, Nag and Nagaina, who want to kill everyone in the family so that they and their babies will have the garden all to themselves.  He tricks the adult snakes, feeds their eggs to the ants, and succeeds in killing them all.  Teddy's grateful family rewards Rikki with all he can eat, and Rikki himself is proud and satisfied with his success.

  3. Classic Fiction Classical literature is a term used to describe fiction and other works before the 20th century (?-1800s). This literature has been passed down through the ages because of its consistency and because it reflects the life and times of society when it was written. Examples: Oliver Twist, Robinson Crusoe, Dickens Christmas Carol, and Rikki-tikki-tavi
