Cricket the Sparrow Nest Tale of Bravery and Beloved Cricket
A fragile girl named Cricket endures mockery over her pug nose yet finds courage in caring for sparrows. She frets over her injured arm after an attempted feeding, then is comforted by Hallie and her mother as the sparrows’ welfare echoes a moral of kindness. A closing quip about crude town justice ends the piece.
