The horned monster decided to attack the team, but the boy did not let them offend - and finally made friends with him. And all because the monsters are also kind inside. A short story from Boris Voitsekhovsky will teach the child friendship and show how deceptive is the first impression. Remembered illustrations of Elena Barenbaum are an ideal addition to the story.
