Larry und Cricket

Rüde Cricket is bursting with energy. It's no surprise that he's the first one in the car when his family plans a trip to a flea market. Among old toys and furniture, Cricket discovers a sad turtle. A real one! And he wants to keep it. The turtle is named Larry and gets to come home with them. There, Cricket shows Larry all his favorite activities. But what does the turtle actually like the most? The answer comes easily to Larry: "Being with you, Cricket," he says.

The extraordinary friendship between the animal Instagram stars Cricket and Larry delights people all over the world. Christine Hill's humorous picture book story vividly and joyfully illustrates: Friendship makes us brave and strong – no matter how different we may be.
