Summary

In this tender tale by Anton Chekhov, a young boy ventures into the world with his somewhat wayward nanny. Overwhelmed by the new experiences, the boy grapples with the vivid impressions of the day. As evening falls, he struggles to sleep, his mind filled with images of soldiers, big cats, horses, glass, oranges, and bright buttons. Unable to contain his excitement, the boy ultimately breaks into tears. Chekhov beautifully captures the innocence and wonder of a child's encounter with the world.
