Splash into spring with Cricket.

In this Cricket you’ll enjoy stories about a girl who tries out for a 1950s TV talent contest and a farm boy who confronts an ornery billy goat.

You’ll read about Elizabeth Blackwell, America’s first woman doctor, and Andrew Higgins, the businessman who engineered the landing craft used on D-Day, winning Eisenhower’s praise as “the man who won the war for us.”

There’s a funny Czech fairy tale about a fellow who is helped on a quest by three strangers with unusual talents; a new art contest; and the bugs go viral on MewTube!
