Everyone knows that as Raweno works, no one is to watch. His is the magical process of
creating the plants and animals. But for one bold "lump of clay", the only thing on his
mind is "Make me now." It is with this statement that the story of why the owl has big
ears begins. For the thing that Raweno despises most is when someone doesn't listen.
What will happen when the Creator of all plants and animals comes across such a defiant creature?
Why the Owl Has Big Ears is a delightful and educational Iroquois cultural story passed
down through the generations. One that embraces the importance of listening and patience.
To find out why the owl has big ears, read this story and try to guess where Rabbit has gone.
