Two novels united by common characters and a never-settled problem: the clash between sincerity of children and the heartless pragmatism and ambitions of grown-ups.
First story, "Temptation": Two kids find a wallet. They are very happy. Little Marko treats everyone with ice cream, soft drinks and cakes. His elder brother Slavcho insists on finding the wallet's owner. Together with their friend, a lawyer's son, they visit people listed on a piece of paper found in the wallet. After all, the kids discover that the owner is the lady next door, Ivanova, who always yells at them and constantly complains to their parents about them. Giving back the wallet to her, they get nothing but a load of reproaches in return. Second story, "Violin Recital": Mitko, son of the Penchevs, takes violin lessons. His mother believes he has a talent and wants him to become a great musician. But Mitko doesn't want to play and talks his younger namesake Little Mitko into attending the violin lessons in lieu of him. After all, their secret plan is revealed during the school concert. Mrs Pencheva doesn't change her mind -- and buys a piano.
