How did King Eagle win his white head? Mother West Wind knows, and the Merry Little Breezes are listening. Thornton Burgess answers the 'how' questions of the Green Forest: how Old Mr. Mink taught himself to swim and more, each animal earning its story. Bedtime natural history from the master. One 'how' per night; sweet dreams follow. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
