Florence Holbrook’s Book of Nature Myths collects stories from around the world that explain natural phenomena — why the robin has a red breast, how fire came to mankind, where the stars come from — drawing on Greek mythology, Native American legend, Norse tales, and other traditions. Each story is retold simply and vividly, making the collection ideal for younger readers and classroom use.

A charming reminder that before science, every people on earth had its own poetry of nature. This free EPUB is cleanly formatted for any device.
