This happened a long, long time ago. Humans had big ears then. And they would flap in the wind.
Their ears were so big that they found a use for them. They would lie down upon one ear, using it as a mattress. And they would cover themselves up with the other ear, like a blanket.
One day, something terrible happened. God was out hunting and he killed what he thought was an animal.
God had mistaken man for an animal. It was the big ears that had fooled him. He became very sad.
To make up for his mistake, God cut off the man's big ears and then brought him back to life. Since then, humans have had small ears.
