[[Gena the Crocodile]] finds out that Cheburashka is unable to read. Luckily, the next day is September 1, the first day of school, and Gena decides to take Cheburashka to school so he can learn. After failing to buy a school uniform, they go to the school anyway, only to find it is closed for repair. Shapoklyak uses Lariska the Rat to stimulate the workers to repair the school quickly. As the school also doesn't have enough teachers, Gena and Shapoklyak volunteer to be teachers.

The friends then go shopping for school clothes, but they struggle to find any that fit Cheburashka's small size—or even Gena’s, for that matter. Meanwhile, Shapoklyak decides she too wants to start anew and, after intimidating the shop clerk with her pet rat, Lariska, she quickly buys her own school uniform. However, they find the school closed for repairs that seem never-ending. Shapoklyak steps in, offering her help, and sends Lariska to scare two workers who are lazily playing dominoes instead of fixing the school. After scolding them, she manages to get them back to work. Learning of a shortage of teachers, Gena volunteers to teach natural science, while Shapoklyak offers to become the shop class instructor.

On August 31, Gena the Crocodile returns home by plane, but to his surprise, Cheburashka does not meet him at the airport as expected. Gena makes his way home alone, where along the way, the mischievous Old Lady Shapoklyak plays a prank on him by putting an “Out of Order” sign on both the elevator and his apartment door. The misunderstanding unfolds as it turns out that Cheburashka received Gena's arrival telegram but couldn't read it since he never learned to read. Noticing the date on a wall calendar, Gena happily points out to Cheburashka that tomorrow is September 1st, the first day of school, which is traditionally celebrated as the Day of Knowledge in Russia. Seizing the opportunity, Gena suggests that Cheburashka should start school, and an excited Cheburashka eagerly agrees.

The friends then go shopping for school clothes, but they struggle to find any that fit Cheburashka's small size—or even Gena’s, for that matter. Meanwhile, Shapoklyak decides she too wants to start anew and, after intimidating the shop clerk with her pet rat, Lariska, she quickly buys her own school uniform.

Shapoklyak steps in, offering her help, and sends Lariska to scare two workers who are lazily playing dominoes instead of fixing the school. After scolding them, she manages to get them back to work.
