    Dear Cricket,

    I ask for Cricket magazine every year for one of my birthday presents. I have been getting them for two years and I think they are awesome. Cricket has all sorts of stories I like! Thank you! It’s way better than the little stories I have to read at school.

    My mom got Cricket when she was little. Now I get them!

    P.S. How did Pussywillow become magic?

    Dear Eliza,

    Magic just happens. We don’t really know how it came to Pussywillow, but we’re sure glad that it did!

    Love, Cricket

    Dear Cricket,

    I have gotten your mag for over two years now. I have one dog named Pip and two cats named Trinka and Jasper. My favorite books are the Divergent series and Eleanor & Park. Does anybody else out there read Divergent?

    I love drawing but I can never finish the art pieces in time. I love vampires and werewolves.

    P.S. There should be an entire comic dedicated to

    Pussywillow!

    Dear Everybuggy,

    Hi! My sister gets this mag, and I always take them.

    ROLF WAS ALMOST asleep when the Frisbee landed with a soft plop a few feet from his head. His eyelids twitched, then opened. He yawned, unimpressed. It was only a Frisbee—one of those new jobs that glows in the dark—but still just a Frisbee. It had p
