Sometimes it's fun to be a werewolf! On his way home from the movies, Motte, a ten-year-old boy, is bitten by a strange dog. Just a little, it hardly hurts. The dog was a werewolf, but Motte only realizes this when he transforms into one himself: His fingernails turn into claws and he grows fur! Sometimes Motte even enjoys being a werewolf - when the big boys finally fear him or when he howls at the moon at night. But still, he is very relieved when he and his friend Lina find a way to become a normal boy again.
