I revisited a children's classic and short story, The Cricket in Times Square. It stuck with me as a child. I enjoyed reading it again.

Our genres for December are classics and short stories.
The short stories can be from any era and can include legends and fairy tales.
Classics should be published before 1975, for the first time. If the first part of series fits our time frame, the sequels count too.
Children's classics work too.
Happy reading, everyone!
