Winter was over. The green grass started to grow everywhere, flowers bloomed in the meadows. The sun was getting warmer and warmer. In the kindergarten outside the window there sat Tessie, a little girl with fair hair, rosy cheeks and blue eyes that looked like wells.

She was looking sadly out of the window, her head leaning towards her hands and her eyes completely glassy, as if she wanted to cry.

There once was a road around a small fairy-tale town. Big and small cars drove on it. Some trucks delivered goods and other smaller cars took people to work. In this fairy-tale town, people and cars were friends. They helped each other. The cars took people where they needed to go and the people took good care of the cars. They washed them, they filled them up with gas, they fixed them. In return, the cars tried to drive according to the rules. It was the most peaceful town. Until the Hothead came to town.

There was a small airfield far behind the village. There were two planes there. One was blue and the other was green. Everyone who knew them always called them Blue and Green.

It was beautiful. But at night, the planes had a different life.

The story I’m about to tell you happened a long time ago. Back then, there were still a few dragons on earth. There weren’t many, but there were a few. They lived peacefully on the ground and tried not to be seen. Most people didn’t even know they existed. They didn’t show themselves to people. Only occasionally would someone catch a glimpse of them unexpectedly. Some lived in the woods. Others lived in the seas or lakes. One of the dragons stayed near the high cliffs. His home was inside a cave.

One day a little bear, whom everyone called Misha, was walking in the forest. He hummed as he walked, hopped here and there, watched the squirrels in the trees and when there was a big stick on the forest path, he put it aside. He liked these walks very much. He walked at his own pace. Sometimes he rested in the moss and enjoyed the pleasant peace that was in the woods. One day when Mickey was sitting by a tree during a walk like this, something surprised him.
