This is another of the successful serials that introduce children to the wonders of nature and natures creatures. Little Vašek is spending his summer holidays in a foresters lodge amidst endless woods and forests. One day he finds a box on the threshold and in it two puppies that look somewhat like German sheep dogs. Vašeks father, a professional photographer, is willing to take them in, and so Vašek becomes a nurse and coach to the two little orphans. The pups are doing well, they are growing fast and soon the sweet little balls of fluff become leggy rascals whose games and battles look like serious fights and hunts. Vašek is ever more convinced that the two little dogs he is looking after are in fact wolves. This is finally confirmed by the vet. When the holidays come to an end, Vašek will have to leave the wolves at the foresters, and how sad that makes him. He spent the most wonderful summer holiday ever with his pups. He cant stop thinking of his wolves even in faraway Africa, where his father has taken him on a photography safari. On his return he could hardly recognize his darlings, but they recognized him all right and welcomed him back like a long-lost friend.
