Dear Cricket and Everybuggy,

Hi! I’m a female boy scout and I love dancing, music, and animals. I also love this magazine. I have been getting it since I was eight! I’m the oldest of three and I have a dog named Copper, a leopard gecko named Leppy, and two chickens of my own for pets. I’m homeschooled, and my favorite subject is social studies.
