Selections from

The Book of Nature Myths

Florence Holbrook's The Book of Nature Myths is a fairly good source of sentences for KISS grammar exercises for third and fourth graders simply because many of the sentences are relatively simple. Each story has its own page here, and the selections used thus far are:

1. The Story of the First Hummingbird
2. The Story of the First Butterflies
3. The Story of the First Woodpecker
4. Why The Woodpecker's Head Is Red
5. Why the Cat always Falls upon her Feet
22. Why The Hoofs of The Deer Are Split
24. The Story of the Oriole
27. The Story of the First Moles
28. The Story of the First Ants
29. The Face of the Manito
30. The Story of the First Diamonds
33. Why the Evergreen Trees Never Lose their Leaves
