Fairy tale #1 "How we rushed Christmas"

Fairy tale #2 "The whole truth about little gray men"
The adults have gone to the New Year's party, but who is rustling and walking around the empty apartment? What if this someone wants to steal all the candies? You'll have to set a trap for him. And at the same time discover many secrets from the lives of little gray people.
Fairy tale #3 "Meeting"
Do ghosts exist? One boy knows for sure, because on Christmas Eve he found himself in a strange place where he asked three right questions.
Fairy tale #4 "Gingerbread"
Dad, Mom, and brother and sister spent the whole day baking gingerbread men for the holiday, but then they got sick. What a shame! Is there really no holiday now? No way!
