Behind the Chinese emperor's garden, in the forest, there lived a little gray nightingale. He sang so wonderfully that poems and books were written about him. The emperor himself could not hold back his tears while listening to his singing - that was the best reward for the singer! But once an artificial nightingale, studded with precious stones, was delivered to the palace, and the real bird became uninteresting to people. One day the emperor fell seriously ill. All alone he lay in his luxurious bedroom, tormented by memories. Oh, how he missed the music that would drown out the whispers of the past! But the mechanical nightingale was silent, for there was no one to start it. And suddenly a wonderful singing sounded outside the window... The book is illustrated with atmospheric drawings by Oleg Pakhomov.
