Don’t be an April Fool! Read this month’s Cricket.
Want to know how to catch an escaped python? Or where spaghetti grows on trees? Or how to tell whether your nose is from outer space? You’ll find out all this and other useful information in this month’s issue. You’ll also read about a modern Indian girl overcoming traditional prejudices in Kolkata, about the man who gave the clouds the names we all use today, and the final episode of “The Princess and the Golden Fish.” There are clever riddle poems, a history of April Fools’ Day, and the bugs have a riddle contest in which even Ladybug is polite, modest, and helpful. (April Fools!)
