How and Why the Leaves Fall: A Story Sketch.
Horwood, Bert; Henderson, Bob
Pathways: The Ontario Journal of Outdoor Education, v7 n5 p22-23 Jul-Aug 1995
A short story compares an old man's tale of why the woodland animals prepare for winter and the leaves change colors with a teacher's science-based explanations. Commentary distinguishes inquiry of wonder (why) and inquiry of power (how), and suggests ways to record the story for oral retelling and adapt it for use with young, older, and university audiences.
