What happens when curiosity leads you into a giant adventure? Kyrie the Cricket has always wondered what it looks like inside a human home, despite his insect friends warning him to stay outside. When the Jones family rushes inside their Georgia home to escape the summer heat, Kyrie seizes the moment and slips through the front door right behind them.
Once inside, Kyrie finds a cozy hiding place under the washing machine and listens to the busy sounds of the household. He witnesses the three young Jones brothers having a spirited debate about their favorite Bible verses, which leads to a gentle teaching moment from their parents about faith, forgiveness, and the plan of salvation.
However, the real excitement begins when the lights go out. Kyrie cannot resist letting out a loud chirp to celebrate his new surroundings, waking up the entire house.
Soon, an energetic, family-wide search turns every room upside down. Closets open, cabinets close, and sofas are checked as the clever little cricket stays exactly one hop ahead of his pursuers.
This beautifully illustrated children's book captures the fun of an indoor game of hide and seek while delivering uplifting spiritual encouragement.
