I thought it was so interesting that they placed Chester's cage in the center of the table. In most cultures, insects, or any other creature would probably not be welcome at the dinner table, never mind at the center. But, the Chinese seem to have a strong respect for the cricket. It almost seemed to me that Chester was the guest of honor! What do you think?
Questions for thought:
How does the very old Chinese gentleman greet Mario?
Where do the men find the answer to Mario's problem? What do they say that Mario should feed Chester?
Who is your favorite character in the story? Why are they your favorite character? Is there a character that you identify with?
