More than simply a compilation of historic excerpts

Compiled and edited by Marianne Carus (Founder and Editor-in-Chief of the Cricket Magazine Group), Celebrate Cricket: 30 Years Of Stories And Art commemorates the longevity and enduring inspiration of Cricket magazine by collecting award-winning stories and poems, illustrated with black-and-white pictures and a few color cover illustrations of magazine issues. Yet Celebrate Cricket is more than simply a compilation of historic excerpts; there are also fresh contributions and reflections of the great people who founded and contributed to Cricket magazine, including a tale from the magazine's early days by Lloyd Alexander himself, rounding out this very highly recommended tribute that is a "must" addition to school and community library collections for young readers.
