Ben
Ben is playing with his wooden train set.
A cricket jumped onto the track (woe to that cricket!).
“Oh no! Catch that cricket.”
“Hey, everybody, look! There’s a cricket in the caboose.”
“Oh no! He went up my sleeve!”
Dad: “Don’t worry. He won’t eat much.”
Ben shook the cricket out of his sleeve and put it on top of the wood stove. “Hey, look. He’s cooking.”
Dad: “Ben, I don’t think he likes that.”
“I guess I’d better take him off…”
