A review by lillygabriella
The Cricket in Times Square by Garth Williams, George Selden

emotional lighthearted fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? N/A
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

3.0

This would have rated higher if there were not those blatantly racist, super cringy parts, where the author fails to even properly caricature Chinese people. The man had obviously been in the states for decades, if not his whole life, so he should have been speaking something besides bad pigin JAPANESE stereotype English. All the Rs were replaced with Ls, SMDH.

The parts with just the animals were sweet and cute. And that's why I gave it three stars.
