The protagonist, the little chick Zhyoltik, only knows the world. He went out for a walk with the rest of the chickens and fell behind. Soon he lost his company out of sight and was very upset. And then some worm appeared in front of him. Then the Zhyoltik was completely frightened and cried. Hearing the chicken cry, a puppy ran up to him and asked: why is he crying. After learning the reason, the puppy explained to Zhyoltik that the worm would get scared and crawl away, as soon as the chicken would bite it. The advise acted. Then Zhyoltik began to apply this method to others, but somehow it did not work.
