When Hillel wakes up one morning feeling achy all over, his parents take him to the hospital. There, he meets Sad, Mad, and Scared, who are so noisy that he can’t hear himself think. A nurse tells him to lie down inside a Big Machine so they can see what’s wrong, but Hillel is too scared to go in by himself. But then, his mother has an idea. She takes a notepad from her bag and draws little helpers – the Paper Menschies!
