Summary: The Cricket in Times Square
Review: As a teacher, my favorite time of day is storytime. My students fell in love with Chester, Harry and especially Tucker. My young students understand the humor but my older students gleen a deeper understanding of friendship and its joys and responsibilities. I enjoy it as a read aloud because the rich cultural diversity gives me the chance to use a range of voices. I have expanded the book to teach a variety of subjects from insects to urban transportation. It's truly a favorite

Summary: Fun story with humans and animals as main characters!
Review: I enjoyed this book. I particularly liked the part when Chester meets Mr. Smedley, who is a music teacher. Mr. Smedley is so surprised to learn that Chester, a cricket, can play scales and songs! After reading The Cricket in Times Square, try The Phantom Tollbooth, one of my favorites. It also has both animals and humans as main characters.

Summary: Funny to the point of insanity!!!!
Review: In The Cricket in Times Square, Chester Cricket learns that New York city is a nice place to visit but he wouldn't want to live there. He also learns that fame isn't what it's cut out to be. I rate this book 4 stars because it was incredibly funny, yet didn't have a very exciting climax.

Review: I thought that it was a very interesting book about the cricket (chester) that landed in Times Sqare. My favorite part of the book was when Mario and Chester went to China Town and ate the Chinese dinner with Sai Fong and the Chinese gentelman. My favorite charaters were Chester, Tommy cat, and tucker. It was a great book to read!! I recomend this book to you.
