heartwarming story

I'm the type of person who will not by a childrens book if I don't like it visually no matter how good the story is. I got both with this. Very sweet little story with a happy ending and the illustrations are like eye-candy to me!

Two translations are better than one.

Pushkin Threefold is so named because each of the poems featured is presented three times: in metric translation, literal translation, and in Russian. It's a wonderful work because, barring actual fluency in Russian, comparing multiple translations is the closest English-speakers can get to the meaning of the original poems. It loses a star only because some of the poems have been better translated elsewhere. However, it maintains four stars because I've never found any single book which contained _all_ the best translations.
