Tell Those Crickets To Be Quiet! was written for my 3 year old daughter Meghan, who could not fall asleep because the cricket noise on the porch was too loud. Meghan enjoyed listening to the story when she was little, even though there were no illustrations. This story was originally typed on an electric typewriter, and then pasted into a blank book. 30 years later, Meg still has the original book, although it is very worn. The cover has detached and the threaded binding has torn away. Last year, as a Christmas gift for me, Meghan boxed the original book along with a printout of the newly designed artwork for the cover. To my surprise, Meghan had hired a young and very talented art student, Maddie Maranto, to work with me to illustrate the story. So here it is. A 30 year old story about a little girl and those noisy crickets on the porch. We hope you and your children enjoy it as much as Meghan and I have.
