Do you know what to do if chased by a crocodile (besides run)? Or why not to put urine on a rattlesnake bite? Or what happened when a real hydrogen bomb was accidentally dropped off the coast of Spain? You'll find out, in this summer fun-filled issue of Cricket.

You'll read about the youngest boy in a large family who's can't stop himself from saying gross things, even when he's having dinner with the girl he loves.  And a man who unexpectedly has an elephant delivered to his door. And the surprising leader of Union spies in Richmond during the Civil War. There's also a special section of stories illustrated by one of our favorite and funniest, and now dearly missed, Cricket illustrators, Marylin Hafner. And to top it all off, a new photography contest.
