Haida Legend How The Eagle Learned To Fly Written and Illustrated by Stephen, Grade 4 IT Ý
Ý
ÝÝÝÝ One day there was an eagle that wanted to fly like crows and
seagulls. So the next day eagle went to the top of a mountain and jumped off. He flapped and flapped, but he still hit the ground with a BOOM! Eagle got up although he could barely move. The next day eagle wanted to try again, but he did not know what to do. Then he saw all the eagles dancing around a fire. So he ran over and lit his tale feathers on fire. BANG! Eagle shot up into the air. He flapped and flapped like last time but he hit the ground once more. When he was laying there scorched, a coyote came walking out of the bush and bit the eagle right in the TAIL! The eagle went flying into the air. Once again he thought it was his big chance to fly so he flapped as hard as he could and he flew, for hours and hours. That is how Eagle learned to fly.
