Crickets In The Pockets by Yuval Harpaz

     Tommy and Jimmy were great friends with lively imaginations. One day Jimmy decides to play with another friend at recess. Tommy is hurt.  Later that day, Tommy finds a Cricket who talks.  The lesson he teaches Tommy is a very valuable one. 

     Well written and the moral is fantastic!  Love the lesson it teaches especially with boys.  The author made this one little boys are going to enjoy. The cricket talking is a nice touch as is the lesson about choosing friends.

     I did find an  issue. I felt this might be a little above some boys understanding but with parental guidance it should be okay for most.

    I gave this one 3 out of 5 cheers because of the deep lesson.
