Project: The Opossum and the secret of fire

Storytime is a UK-based children’s literature magazine that collects myths and stories from different cultures. This one is the Aztec myth of how the opossum tricked the Sun God and stole the fire to give it to mankind. In this story the possum steals the fire by setting its own tail on fire, which is why this animal has a hairless tail still today.
