A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Tucker is a streetwise city mouse. He thought he'd seen it all. But he's ne ver met a cricket before, which really isn't surprising, because, along wit h his friend Harry Cat, Tucker lives in the very heart of New York City-the Times Square subway station. Chester Cricket never intended to leave his C onnecticut meadow. He'd be there still if he hadn't followed the entrancing aroma of liverwurst right into someone's picnic basket. Now, like any tour ist in the city, he wants to look around. And he could not have found two b etter guides-and friends-than Tucker and Harry. The trio have many adventur es-from taking in the sights and sounds of Broadway to escaping a smoky fir e. Chester makes a third friend, too. It is a boy, Mario, who rescues Chester from a dusty corner of the subway station and brings him to live in the saf ety of his parents' newsstand. He hopes at first to keep Chester as a pet, but Mario soon understands that the cricket is more than that. Because Ches ter has a hidden talent and no one-not even Chester himself-realizes that t he little country cricket may just be able to teach even the toughest New Y orkers a thing or two. The Cricket in Times Square is a 1961 Newbery Honor Book.
