Reptiles crawl up walls, slither on the ground, and swiftly flick their tongues, but underneath their scaly exteriors lie hidden meanings. In this anthology, you will be exposed to Japanese turtles, Native American rattlesnakes, and even Mayan snakes. The tales collected here span the globe and show different representations of these coldblooded creatures. Learn how a turtle created the Milky Way, the story of Thor fishing, and the odd relationship between a hare and a crocodile. But before you read this collection of stories, make sure you ask yourself: Do you believe in dragons? If not, you might end up trapped in a bell. The volume includes 46 myths and an introduction by Megan Alper.
