0:00 24:57

A Cherokee 'How and Why' tale which explains why turtle's shell is cracked. It's beautifully told by storyteller from the Cherokee Nation, Gayle Ross. Warning: there are moments of violence, and things do not end at all well for the wolf in this story. Some listeners particularly younger ones might find it unsettling. You might prefer listening to our extra story this week: The Three-Bears Rap.
