Old Cricket tells his missus why he can't fix the roof — "I woke with a creak in my knee, dear wife."
He tells Cousin Katydid why he can't pick berries — "I woke with a creak in my knee and a crick in my neck."
He tells Uncle Ant why he can't harvest corn — "I woke with a creak in my knee, a crick in my neck, and a crack in my back....I'm off to see Doc Hopper."
But before he gets there, Old Crow comes calling. "Caw-caw-caw," he says, hungrily. And caw is one C-word Old Cricket can't relish.
The creators of Sailor Moo present a second critter comedy, full of wordplay and antic animation.
Old Cricket doesn't feel like helping his wife and neighbors to prepare for winter and so he pretends to have all sorts of ailments that require the doctor's care, but hungry Old Crow has other ideas.

Old Cricket
This is an entertaining story about an old cricket who is trying to get out of doing some work at home. The narrative is repetitive and filled with onomatopoeia; it's really fun to read aloud.
The illustrations are marvelous, with wonderful details on the various critters that make them look incredibly realistic and anthropomorphic at the same time. Overall, it's an engaging story that will likely appeal to children of all ages. We really enjoyed reading it together.
When I posted my review here on Goodreads, I discovered that this author/illustrator team also created the book Sailor Moo: Cow at Sea (Golden Kite Honors, so we'll have to check that one out from our local library, too!
