Every summer I go to my grandmother in the village of Lesnaya Stenka. The very name itself indicates the scenic location in which I rest. Forests around the old, deciduous, they really like a wall surround the village. Local people graze livestock on the edge of the forest, picking mushrooms, berries and nuts in the forest.
This summer, and for the first time I tried myself as a cowherd boy. The grandmother’s farm is big: a cow, three goats, chickens. Earlier, when I asked my grandmother to let me graze goats, my grandmother used to say that I was still small. This time she asked me to take goats to grazing. I am well acquainted with the place – there I have often been with my grandmother.
Everything went well, it seemed to me that nothing is easier. My goats walked confidently ahead of the familiar road and led me along. At the edge of the forest, I sat down on a stump, in the distance there were familiar children who also grazed pets. I did not notice how
my goats went into the forest. I jumped up and began to call out loud. In response, I heard bleating. Oh, there you are! I entered the forest and soon saw my wards. They peacefully wandered among the trees, continuously chewing something. “But it’s really charming,” I told the goats, “but it’s time to go home.” And suddenly I realized that the terrain in the forest was completely unfamiliar to me. As we were here, and already did not remember. I carelessly moved behind the goats, so I lost my way. What to do? I was seized by despair. Where to go? Which side of the village? Trees are everywhere the same. And the goats continued to move. I began to worry: at least not to lose them. The animals did not obey me. They even accelerated the movement, as if trying to tear myself away from me. I was already going after the goats, not understanding the way. I could not go home without them, and what kind of return could there be if I was lost in the forest! Suddenly, something cracked overhead. I looked up and saw a squirrel leaping from a branch to a branch with a fiery sunny rabbit. At other times
I would have admired her, but now I’m even worse. The squirrel knows where he is going! At my feet flashed a snake. Screaming, I ran after the goats. And suddenly my heart beat happily. Goats took me to a familiar grazing. They continued to move towards the house. And then I remembered that my grandmother always came back with them at the same time. At home, she milked them, drank them, treated them to pieces of sugar. The animals did not obey me. They even accelerated the movement, as if trying to tear myself away from me.

“And you, like a watch,” my grandmother said when she saw us. “Well, did you manage the goats? They are quiet.” I did not begin to talk about my adventure, I was afraid that my grandmother would no longer entrust me to her favorites. But, apparently, on my face, she already understood everything. “It’s all right, Alyonushka, get used to it,” my grandmother said gently, “Here, have a drink of fresh milk.” She just gave us our drill. “
