Dear Cricket,

Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue

Dear Cricket,

Dear Cricket,

I loved February's issue! I especially liked the punctuation poems. They taught the reader about each one of the puncuations. I think Cricket should have more stories like "Puncuation Poems" and "Hurrah for Mr. Davis! Hurrah for Mr. Lincoln!" because they are interesting and fun to read. I've been reading and collecting Cricket magazines for a little over a year now and I have loved them all! Another issue I enjoyed was the March issue. I liked reading about ancient Egypt and mummies. I also liked the small comic about the thoughts of a cat. It was very funny. I love your magazine. Keep up the great writing. I can't wait to get next months issue.

Your friend,

Scott G.

P.S. I love the cover art of each issue.

I thought the punctuation poems were amazing, even though I don't use a whole lot of things like commas!!!

I do use colons and parentheses though!!!

I saw your post and it made me smile! It's on the 30th page of the CB. I am mysterious, a lot of you know me, just I go under different names. Most start with S. Guess who I am!

I'm fairly positive that you're St. Owl.

No. I am not St, but am flattered that you'd think so.

I'm quite sure that you are... Scylla! Or... Somebody.

Yep. I've been trying to make sentences out of the Name section that use all three segments. Thanks!

Carys, whoever you are, I was guessed by Booksy Owly. My mom got Cricket when she was a kid, but didn't keep any issues.

Booksy: Hah!  Mice got me on the Reverse SI by HAB rather than you for a change! You always get me.

Ok. I REALLY need to say something.

Guys, I know you love looking at old threads.

And seeing when everyone joined.

And scrolling through old RPs.

But I'm going to have to ask you to keep these threads alone. 

These are like old things from a museum.

They are there to look at. 

To gaze at.

To jaw drop over.

But not to touch.

And not to comment on.

I would love it so, so very much if you stopped posting on old threads.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Butterfly was that supposed to be a poem? If so what kind?Laughing
