'How Chipmunk Got His Stripes And Other Siberian Folktales' is based on the folklore of Siberia's (Russian Far East) indigenous peoples. It is the third book in the series of 'Tales of My Childhood'. Siberia is a vast region in the eastern part of Russia in northern Asia. It extends from the Ural Mountains to the Russian Far East, bounded in the north by the Arctic Ocean and in the south by Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and China. Most of the area is covered with swamps and the Taiga forests. Siberia's original inhabitants were hunting, fishing and herding tribes whose cultures were related to those of the native Indian people in north America. Siberian folklore is similar to the native Indian myths and legends as in both of these cultures humans depended on and respected the animals and nature believing that all the live creatures as well as sun, moon, rivers and mountains and everything that surrounded them had its own spirit.
