Transcript

Chrys: Hey you guys! It's Chrys. I got some really great news today. I'm going to have to be kind of ambiguous because I don't know if I'm supposed to talk about it... at all. But here's what I can tell you about it. It has to do with my religion, and it's a really really big honor. I mean, not so many girls are chosen to do it. And I have been. I'm really really excited. And, for the first time, I feel like my mom's proud of me for something.

Anyways, today I thought I'd read to you from one of my favorite kid's books. (Chyrs pulls a book off of the shelf.) It's called A Very Quiet Cricket. It's by Eric Carle.

"One warm day, from a tiny egg, a little cricket was born. 'Welcome,' chirped a big cricket, rubbing his wings together. The little cricket wanted to answer, so he rubbed his wings together. But nothing happened, not a sound."

(She holds up the book)

Chrys: Here's the illustration. So, pretty much, that's all that happens throughout the rest of the book. Everyone sees the little cricket and greets him, but the little cricket can't make a sound. It's kind of sad until he gets to the end. He meets a little girl cricket, and rubs his wings together, and he can finally chirp! (Chrys holds up the book and a chirping sound is heard.) Did you hear it? Yeah, I did too. Good going, little cricket.
