How the Robin Stole Fire
How the Robin Stole Fire is a retelling of a story based on a Boandik (BOH-uhn-dik) tale called "How Fire Was Stolen from the Red-Crested Cockatoo." The Boandik people are the Aboriginal people of the southeastern region of South Australia. This tale explains how people came to use fire as a tool and why brush fires sometimes sweep through the grasslands of the Australian outback.
