I share Tolstoy's view on Chekhov's child figures.
I thought I remembered some stories almost by heart- but I'm re-reading this absolutely amazing, incredible translation, and I see that not exacly, memory doth fail in tiny but important details.
Your translation flows so naturally I thought I was reading this story in Russian. Chekhov depicted children as lovingly and accurately as Dickens and Andersen could. What a gem!
