HONG KONG -- Disney plans to publish Indian-language story books for the first time, a spokeswoman said Monday.

Disney was issuing "The Jungle Book," "Aladdin," "The Lion King," "Winnie the Pooh," "Bambi," "Cinderella," "Tarzan" and "Peter Pan" in Hindi, Marathi, and Malayalam, Hong Kong-based Disney Asia spokeswoman Alannah Goss said in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

Goss said Disney launched the Hindi and Marathi books nationwide last week, while the Malayalam books would debut in March. She said Disney was not planning to publish any other Indian-language books.

The books were being published by India's Popular Prakashan.
