To successfully write an essay on a work, you need to keep it in mind. Unfortunately, in an age of a large flow of information, it is difficult to remember and reproduce even a small story from memory. When you need to urgently recall a work, but there is no time to re-read, a brief retelling for the reader's diary comes to the aid of the students. And in order to make a review, read concise and understandable book analysis.
(321 words) The events in the story “Figures” begin with the fact that, waking up in the morning, little Zhenya is eager to learn how to write and read. He dreams of writing a children's magazine as soon as possible, buying a pencil case, picture books and colored pencils. The boy asks for this uncle, but he declares the day "royal", not wanting to go to the city. Eugene does not relent and asks to show him the numbers. But uncle is too lazy to do it right now, and he promises to show them tomorrow. The boy is offended, but, having reconciled, begins to look forward to tomorrow. After breakfast, he makes a noise in the hall - turns over the chairs with shouts, expressing the exciting joy of expectation.
And in the evening, when mother, grandmother and uncle are talking at the table, Eugene finds himself a new entertainment - to bounce with a sharp cry and kick with all his might to the floor. He is happy, but adults do not like this behavior of the boy. In the end, losing patience, uncle jumps up from a chair, yells at his nephew, slaps and pushes out of the room. The victim cries and calls for help either mother or grandmother. The conversation is terminated. Uncle is ashamed of his act, and he lights a cigarette without raising his eyes. Mother, returning to knitting, complains that her son is too spoiled. Grandmother turns to the window, tapping the table with a spoon, and barely restrains herself not to go to the nursery.
After half an hour, the uncle enters the nursery, pretending to have entered the case. The boy, intermittently breathing, plays with empty matchboxes. When the uncle goes to the exit, the nephew declares that he will never love him again. Following uncle, mom and grandmother come in. They advise Zhenya to ask for forgiveness from his uncle, but the boy does not give up. In the end, the grandmother manages to reverse the pride of the child, recalling that, apart from his uncle, no one will teach him the numbers.
Eugene asks for forgiveness from his uncle, says that he loves him very much, and asks to show the figures. Uncle tells him to carry a chair to the table, paper and pencils. The child is happy - his dream has come true. Lying on the table with his chest, he displays the numbers and learns to count them correctly. And uncle is also happy because his nephew is joyful.
