Once upon a time there lived a mouse and a sandpiper. The mouse said to the sandpiper:

- Walk on the water!

“I’ll drown,” said the sandpiper.

- Hold on to the tree.

- I'll scratch my hands.

- And you put on your father's gloves.

“I’ll tear my father’s mittens.” - Mother will sew them up.

“Mother’s needle became dull. My father has a sharpener.

The sharpener has deteriorated.

- Well, go to the camp and visit.

- Okay, I'm going.

The sandpiper returned from the camp, and the mouse asked:

—What is the yaranga covered with?

- Dog skin.

-What are their rafters made of? - From dog bones.

- What kind of poles do they have under the roof?

- From dog ribs.

— What are the pillows made of?

- From dog tails.

-What do they eat?

- Dog tongues.

-What do they cook in?

- In dog turtles.

-Where is the camp now?

- It burned down.

-Where is the fire now?

- It's pouring rain!

-Where is the rain?

- The birds drank.

-Where are the birds?

- They flew away.
