Me and Jack
One day, my mother read me a book about a hero.
I also decided to be a hero and to perform a heroic act.
- Kar!
I immediately realized that in our city I could not perform this act.
I would have to go to Antarctica
or, at least, to the North Pole.
I hesitated, but in the end,
I decided on the North Pole
- Jack!
Of course, I knew that it would be hard to get to the North Pole alone
So I decided to take Jack with me.
He and I have always understood each other
- Jack! Come with me to the North Pole!
- Woof! Is it far?
- Decently.
- Woof! Further than the next deli?
- You've got to be kidding me! Three times as far!
- Woof! I cannot go that far.
I am very tired.
- What is it, I wonder, that you are tired from?
- From gymnastics.
Then I understood why...
he didn't want to go with me to the North Pole
My grandmother had gone to the market to buy meat and was going to cook soup.
Jack knew that he would get all the bones out of the borscht.
And he was, as always, waiting for that moment.
- All right! I'll manage without you.
- I'll take Ryzhik in your place!
- Only don't you start crying if I never come back.
- Oh, why doesn't it hold?
- Listen, Ryzhik,
Will you come with me to the North Pole?
To perform a heroic act!
- Oh! I'd love to perform an heroic act.
- DEAL! We'll do it for sure!
I did not know exactly where the North Pole was
I decided to go to the station, board a train, and let it take me where I needed to go.
- What kind of animals are there? At the North Pole?
- Walruses, seals, then white bears... and... all kinds of fish.
- All kinds of... is that all? I do not want to go to the North Pole!
- I do not like seals. I love monkeys and parrots.
- Let's go to Africa instead! I am afraid of these seals.
- Oh, you! Traitor!
- Be-e! Be-e!
This cake, probably, would have been much-appreciated by Ryzhik.
- Be-ee!
- Kar!
- Jack!
- Woof! Woof!
We had to hurry so as to not to miss the train.
Because my dad said that tomorrow
at the North Pole the polar night would start
I do not like it much when it's dark.
- Woof! Woof!
- Mom!
- Oh, Jack. Now we will never accomplish the heroic deed.
- To inform those present:
- Sergey Borodin, five and a half years old,
and the dog Jack, two years old, accomplished a real heroic act.
- Risking their lives, they pulled a girl out of the icy water.
- For this, they are awarded the medal "For helping people in trouble"
- And why doesn't Jack get a medal? After all, he saved the girl even more than me!
- Jack gets his lost bone returned and a pound of "Dog Joy" sausages
