Contents

Sun
Tomchik is very hot and wants to sleep, but he can’t sleep, he only cries. Mommy, Daddy, date palms, suitcases and even Tutankhamun are crying with him.

Cars

Tomczyk and Daddy go to choose a car – and despite the very difficult choice, they agree! (Names of all possible cars in Belarusian and English!)

Sea

Can you call a puddle or a pool a sea? Yes, if they bring as much joy!

Balls

Tom is going to the yard and looking for his balls. He has a lot of them: soccer balls, basketball balls, tennis balls, volleyball balls, and most of all funny jumpers. But while you find them all under the bed and behind the sofa, you will come across other interesting things. Oh, I’d better get there before it rains!

Hide-and-seek

Do you know where the best place is so no one can find it?

Simple things.

A story that reveals Tomchik’s recipe for happiness.

A dream

Tomchik’s family goes to Vilnius – and the boy really wants everything that is not in the car. It is only when he arrives that he finds what he really wanted.
