"When they say these stories of Tolstoy are short, they mean SHORT. Maybe 3 sentences. These are all in English, translated by E. Felgenhauer. I'm not sure how good a job she did. I guess Russian children aren't as coddled as Americans. For instance, a child hides in the closet during a storm, and the story says to stay there, because he's a coward. A child confesses to breaking a plate and Dad says he is truthful. Another child broke a teapot at a tea party and scalded herself. A child found a mushroom, but it was wormy."
