고양이, 쥐, 귀뚜라미... 서로를 먹이로 삼을 법한 이 묘한 파티가 도대체 어떻게 이루어졌는가? 거기다가 도시 한복판에서 출몰한 귀뚜라미라니? 코네티컷에서 소풍 바구니속에 들어있다가 뉴욕의 한복판에 버려진 귀뚜라미는, 이 거대한 곳에서 쥐 Tucker와 고양이 Harry를 만나서 아주 특별한 시간을 보내게 된다.
First, I often couldn't find where cricket is in the picture. It's quite sure they are small. I once took them to my house. Even they were on my electron-dictionary. Some were really small, but some were as big as my thumb. I could have killed them, but I let them to go out. I still remember that happening, which followed me into Seoul from countryside.
And the cricket went to the really big city, New York. Everyone knows New York is a quite big city. And there are several squares, and the Times Square, which made for the newspaper publishing company, Times. He met really special friends, Tucker and Harry. Well, they are not human. Rat and Cat. Rat is a kind of food of cat, isn't it? It was a really big mystery, but this story also made me more happy.
The small cricket, Chester went to several places where he can go. He even ate Chinese food party, too! His friends were really good to understand him. And there was the most important part. This small cricket had several things to teach the great New Yorkers about that.
