Kroshik nerp and Dusya seal in pinnipeds adventures!
Who am I?
Little Kroshik couldn’t fall asleep and tossed and turned. One simple question wouldn’t leave him alone. Who is he? Kroshik reached out his flipper and touched his mom who was resting nearby.
– Mommy, I’ve been thinking all day about who I am. Maybe I’m a manatee? I also live in the water and love to dive.
– But don’t you have such a funny face? – Mom smiled.
– Maybe I’m a walrus? I also love to rest on the rocky shore with all my relatives.
– But don’t you have tusks? – Mom was surprised.
– Maybe they haven’t grown yet? Or am I a penguin? I also love to play in the water and hunt for fish.
– No, little one. Penguins are birds. They live on land and lay eggs, – patiently explained Mom.
– Then maybe I’m a seal? We’re so alike… Mom, who am I?
– You are my little Kroshik, – Mom replied and kissed him on the nose. – Nerp Kroshik. Goodnight, little one!
Kroshik is Missing!
One day Kroshik disappeared somewhere. Such a commotion ensued! Everyone searched for him and called out, but he was nowhere to be found.
Suddenly, he emerges from the hole onto the ice.
– Where have you been, Kroshik?
– I wanted to eat some fish, so I dived into the hole. But I didn’t find anything and dived deeper. And there I met Auntie Jellyfish. She invited me over. She lives almost at the very bottom. It’s very dark and cold there. And everyone has their own little lantern. And when everyone turns on their lanterns, it becomes very bright and cheerful. And a fish swam into the light, so I had a great hunt.
And Kroshik settled comfortably on the ice, yawned, and fell asleep.
Lonely manatee
One day Kroshik and Dusya were swimming through a forest of algae. A lone manatee swam by.
– Dusya, have you noticed that a very sad manatee is all alone every day?
They swam after him and called out to him.
– Why are you sad all the time?
The manatee turned around and sadly replied:
– Because I don’t have any friends.
Kroshik and Dusya looked at each other and blurted out in one voice:
– We’ll be your friends! No need to be sad, dear manatee.
That made him so delighted and cheered! He began to joke and tell funny stories. And everyone who swam by gathered around him to listen.
– So you turn out to be a cheerful manatee, you just needed some attention and support.
Everyone laughed and started dancing. That’s the razzle-dazzle that happened in the forest of algae.
Kroshik is looking for friends
– Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, catch a tiger by the toe,
– If he hollers, let him go, eeny, meeny, miny, moe…
Kroshik opened his eyes and looked around. Today he’s playing hide and seek with his friends: Dusya, Birdy-Birdy, and the Lil Walrus.
Usually, Dusya can be found on the pebble beach, where she relaxes with her relatives.
Birdy-Birdy dries her wings at the bird market after fishing in the restless northern sea.
Lil Walrus likes to spend time in the water, he swims on an ice floe like a real captain.
