Once there was only one fire in Norway. A man and a boy were employed to keep the fire lighting. The man to do it by day and the boy by night. One night the boy was tired and he fell asleep. There was a white polar bear and he did not want any fire and he went over to the fire and rolled himself over it until there was only one spark of fire left then he went away.

When the boy woke up he saw the fire lighting and the robin blowing it. When he went over to the robin and her breast was red from the flame and that is how the robin got its red breast. - Collector
