Acerca de esta escucha
"Stomp, stomp, splatter, splatter. It is great to be alive! The Little Girl jumps all around the pool with a high-pitched giggle, maybe, not unlike that made by a mink after drinking and now, making room for others."
This is a joyous story about the granddaughter of Pappadoo who visits the Kentucky farm where her father was born. She was born along the Hudson River in New York State. The author paints her adventure with his knowledge of the plant and animal life on the farm, with its bounty along the trails, in the high fields, and among trees.
They visit an old quarry, one that had provided limestone rocks to build the walls around the farm fields and for the frame around the big old farmhouse. We learn about streams, their connections to pearls via native freshwater mussels, and fossil brachiopods that look like clams. He describes a community of friends who drink from the same pool wherein she wades. She also learns about the black water snake. Watch out! He will still strike, hold you, and chew.
Join the little girl as she wades, climbs, and stomps. You will enjoy the visit with her as much as she loves to dance!

Remarkably little is known about the European eel, Anguilla anguilla. So little, in fact, that scientists and philosophers have, for centuries, been obsessed with what has become known as the “eel question”: Where do eels come from? What are they? Are they fish or some other kind of creature altogether? Even in our age of advanced science, no one has ever seen eels mating or giving birth, and we still don’t understand what drives them, after living for decades in freshwater, to swim great distances back to the ocean at the end of their lives. They remain a mystery.

In 1994 Professor Bryan Sykes, a leading world authority on DNA and human evolution, was called in to examine the frozen remains of a man trapped in glacial ice in northern Italy. News of both the Ice Man's discovery and his age, which was put at over 5,000 years, fascinated scientists and newspapers throughout the world. But what made Sykes's story particularly revelatory was his successful identification of a genetic descendant of the Ice Man, a woman living in Great Britain today. How was Sykes able to locate a living relative?

When Elizabeth Marshall Thomas first arrived in Africa to live among the Kalahari bushmen, she was 19, and these last surviving hunter-gatherers were living as humans had for 15,000 centuries. After a lifetime of interest in the bushmen, Thomas has come to see that their lifestyle reveals great, hidden truths about human evolution.

Of the many different genres of story available, four are chosen for this present volume. The first has to do with the origins of things, either of the world in its entirety or some aspect thereof that was significant to the people who created the story.
