Abstract: en_US The fifteen fables here are all etiological. The first few are How the Turtle Got Its Shell, Why the Snake Has No Legs, and How Birds Got Their Feathers. The fables are assembled roughly in the format of a contemporary calendar, 8½ x 11 in landscape position. The simple illustrations take up about a quarter of each page (printed on one side), and thus the fables are told at some length. The snake lost his legs by getting too fat on woodpecker eggs; he was trapped at the entrance to the birds' nest, and the woodpeckers pecked off his legs! I enjoy the whimsy and imagination in How Birds Got Their Feathers.
