      About This Book

      The littlest cricket of Swampswallow Pond is convinced only by the Wise Old One that being special has nothing to do with physical metamorphosis, flashy colors, or shimmering wings. "The cricket is every child who stopped the music because someone criticized casually, thoughtlessly. It takes a wise friend to bring the music back."--School Library Journal
