Miracles and Marvels of the Birds and Beasts
Selected and translated by FR. ROBERT NIXON, OSB
According to the book of Genesis, our earliest ancestors, Adam and Eve, first lived in peace with all the animals and enjoyed perfect friendship and harmony with them. But in the course of time, after the wicked serpent tempted Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, this situation unfortunately ceased to prevail.
It is hoped that these short, beautiful and sometimes very strange tales may be the source of delight and inspiration to readers both young and old.
