This is the story of a smurf who is sad. He decides to leave Smurf Village to explore the world, only to find it scary and return. This seems to explain why I have never seen a smurf in the wild.
I was so excited to find this book in a used bookstore in Berea, KY. There are 8 in this series of smurf mini books and I was delighted to pick this one up for a mere dollar. Now THAT'S fun! ;o)
