Книжка-картинка. Иллюстрированные стихи. Смешные эпизоды из жизни детей и братьев наших меньших. Я придумал эти книжки, Чтоб смеялись ребятишки. Чтобы рот у малышей Улыбался до ушей. В иллюстрациях использованы клипарты, фрагменты рекламы.

В сборнике – сказки для малышей. Их очень немного, так как начал я записывать свои сочинения, когда старшему внуку, главному любителю сказок, было уже восемь лет. А из того, что мы придумывали с ним раньше, мало что сохранилось в памяти. Зато у этой книги есть и звуковая версия, созданная Наталией Шавыриной. Её работы, как и многие работы талантливых исполнителей, дают новую жизнь озвученным ими произведениям. Посчастливилось и моей книжке. 1. Дождёнок 2. В лесу родилась елочка 3. Такая уж привычка у пиратов 4. Деревянный самолет 5. Упрямая лягушка 6. Кролик и крокодил 7. Лютый зверь 8. Солнечный зайчик, похожий на шоколадное мороженое 9. Зайчик и снеговичок 10. Матрос Чики, или: мечты сбываются?
