Kuklavanya & Co

The book’s heroes—Kuklavanya’s doll (a soft toy), Olya, the cat Dusya, the gnome Uchenichkin, and schoolgirl Masha—find a little dragon Pykhal’ka sleeping inside an old chest, having fallen asleep from the smell of mothballs. It turns out that Pykhal’ka has slept for one hundred years, and, waking up, immediately starts searching for his mother. Pykhal’ka can become invisible and turn into all kinds of different objects—this trait of all dragons is soon discovered by his friends.

Pykhal’ka also eats mustard, which is why he breathes fire.

The ability to transform and become invisible creates a series of funny episodes involving neighbors—Pyrozhkov and Avdohina. Deciding to help Masha deal with her school problems, Pykhal’ka turns into the school principal—and Masha barely manages to clear up the misunderstanding.

Continuing the search for his mother, the little dragon Pykhal’ka lets out a special dragon whistle, and at his call a dragoness appears—huge and winged. Together with his mother, Pykhal’ka flies away to the island of Buyan in the Fairyland.

“Kuklavanya and K” is a continuation of “Little Dragon Pykhal’ka”.
