Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue

 Dear 

 

Dear Everybuggy,                                                                                                                        

In response to Mackenzie R. (September 2008): I am also a homeschooler and I have been homeschooling for my whole life. Is anyone else a sixth grade homeschooler? I love Cricket magazine! It has the best stories ever! My favorite story is "The Star Shard." Fantasy stories are the best! I'm a huge bookworm and I'm always reading. My favorite book series is Warriors by Erin Hunter. Is anyone else a Warriors fan? Hey, Maya Davis (September 2008). You asked if anyone has a pet hedgehog; I don't but I really want one! They're alot of work, so my mom says I need to wait until I'm a little bit older.

About homeschoolers: I am a seventh grade homeschooler and I LOVE it!  If you want to meet the other homeschoolers, please read my post/thread thingy (what's the difference???!!!?!?!) that starts with "I have three..."  There are a ton of homeschoolers on this site!

Aubrey:

I'm in sixth grade, but I'm not a homeschooler, but I have a friend who has been homeschoold for all but 3 years in her life. My favorite is also The Star Shard! I LOVE fantasy. I'm near obsessed with reading. No, really! I have 2 bookshelves in my room, and all of my books are fiction, most of them fantasy, with historical fiction sprinkled around. I am also a Warriors fanatic. I've read all of the books, even Eclipse, and own them all, too. :):):) Pet hedgehogs... My 1st grade teacher had one, named Heisus, but it died. :( Yeah, I'd wait for it. I'm your age, and I can't keep my hamsters alive longer than 6 months. My family always goes on trips, and then they die. :(

I'm not homeschooled, but my three best friends are! They have a lot of dogs, but no hedgehog, although their dog Ikey would like that! I love "The Star Shard," too, and the Warriors series is really great!

 Hi, Everybuggy!

I just LOVE Cricket mag. This is just my first year with it, but I love it anyways! I used to be a National Geographic Kids subscriber, (and still am), but both the mags are = as good. Has anybuggy read this month's Star Shard? If you have, do you like it? I do. It's one of my favorite stories in the WHOLE mag! Cricket, I just want to know, do you like Ladybug, Pudding, George, and Tail, Pussywillow, or Cricket? I just have a certain feeling that it's Cricket, but I could be wrong. Keep up the AWESOME work with the mag!

See, ya!

Yeah, I used to get NG Kids, too, but it's not = to Cricket in my mind.  Too many ads, for one thing.
