This is a village in the Ural Mountains. Prokopych is a famous craftsman. He makes jewellery and he is the best craftsman in the Urals. He uses malachite, a beautiful green stone, to make his jewellery. The people of the village want Prokopych to teach some of the village boys how to make jewellery, but none of them have the talent.

“I’m sorry,” Prokopych says. “I cannot teach these boys. They haven’t got the talent. I need a boy who understands what beauty is!”

There is a young orphan boy, Danila, in the village. Danila is weak and can’t work like the other boys. Prokopych has no children of his own, so he takes Danila into his home.
