It is the sweetest book set in NYC in hardworking Italian families' newspaper stand in Times Square....the three adorable yet fully developed characters are some of my favorite book characters ever....a cricket, a mouse, and a cat!
Pipiri and I fell in love with Chester Cricket!
His beautiful chirping...his love of nature...his helpful spirit...
This book has a wonderful moral for children...rabbit trails to explore...NYC, mice, pets, Chinatown, the history of crickets...and Pipiri and I spent oodles of our mornings researching each of these topics.
Check out these other super fun books and book options...thank you for supporting my blog!
