Celebrate summer with CRICKET Magazine! Vacations, ice-cream, fireworks, and cicadas are just a few special things that summertime brings.
You’ll start with Val’s story – who feels like she’s an outsider in her own family but ends up a hero, and then meet some real-life furry heroes. Celebrate heroes of all sorts with fireworks and making your own fruity-flavored ice cream. And then get to know some of the more irritating parts of summertime – the bugs that buzz and bite. Chock full of stories that whisk you back in time, sophisticated illustrations and images, games, and activities, it’s like a summer vacation for your brain!
