Dear Everybuggy,

Hello! I have been getting Cricket for a couple years now and love the stories, book recommendations, and poems especially! I think it is so great how good mags can bring so many of my kind of people together. I love reading, and my favorite books are Harry Potter, but I love so many other books, too. Near the top of the list are The Luck Uglies, George, and A Series of Unfortunate Events. I also love drawing, poem writing, and being goofy with my friends. I recently started reading a D&D handbook and am putting together a party to play. Any other Dungeons & Dragons players out there?

Hello!

I have been getting Cricket magazines for about four years now, and this is my first letter to you guys. I am a big baseball fan, plus I have a dog and a rabbit. I also like cats. Pussywillow, you are so cute! Old Cricket, you are so wise! What is your favorite color?

If I had to choose, I’d say red and many shades of blue
