Dear Everybuggy,
Our grandparents got my older sister Ana Jean a subscription to Cricket for Christmas 2019. After she reads it, I get to. I am terrible at spelling, math, and grammar. I’ve been homeschooled since second grade. I love to read, write, and draw. I also like to sew. I want to make a dress for myself or one of my siblings. I used to take ballet, but with six kids we had too much going on with school, sports, and music. So we quit all our sports and now do only one: climbing at a bouldering gym.
A few days ago we were looking in little free libraries, and I found in one of them a Cricket magazine from December 1977! It was ssssoooooo different from the ones now! I don’t like to have favorites, so I’ll just say that I think Ladybug is most like me. I don’t have a favorite book because there are so many to choose from, but some that I like are: Bud, Not Buddy, The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter, The Penderwicks, Peter Nimble and When I grow up I want to be a Catholic missionary.
