Hit the mark with Cricket!

In this Cricket you’ll enjoy historical fiction set in ancient Egypt; a fantasy story about bringing a dragon back to life; contemporary fiction featuring a girl whose BFF moves away; a beautiful romantic tale from the Philippines just in time for Valentine Day; and the next episode of “Saving Frefaxi,” about a girl in medieval Iceland who is learning to read mystical runes and see into the “other world.”

All this, plus a new poetry contest on the theme of friendship, a Crossbird Puzzle valentine, and in Cricket Country the bugs raise a stink with Ladybug’s homemade perfume recipe. Phew!
