Tuesday Kidlit Trivia for August 5th, 2025

    This Connecticut-born Yale graduate was living in New York City when he took the subway home one night and heard a cricket chirping at one of the busiest stops. A story formed in his head in minutes, which went on to become a beloved book in 1960, sometimes compared to the classic Charlotte's Web. He wrote many other books but none achieved the popularity of  The Cricket in Times Square. The author is George Selden.
