“WHOA, CHECK THIS out!” Doodlebug Pinkley said to Boggington Bogsworth the Third, his best friend. Hanging from a large leafy plant in the Pinkleys’ backyard garden was a weird, green, tubelike thing. It was a few inches long, thick, and slightly pointy at the bottom. “What is that?” Bog bent forward to study it without getting too close. All at once, the thing wiggled a bit. “Did you see that?” Doodlebug asked. “It’s alive!” “I think it could be some kind of alien species,” Bog decided. “I mean from outer space.” “Yeah,” Doodlebug agreed, “and look, there are two more over there. It’s like an alien invasion.” Sure enough, just a few feet away another big green pod hung from another big green leaf. A third dangled from a twig,…

Worms in Danger

I WAS FINISHING dinner when the alarm sounded. “Worm in danger!” A rescue operation! I dropped my leaf and slithered out of our tunnel. The Safety Squad raced by me, rushing to the surface to save someone from a hungry robin. “Clear the way,” the captain shouted. “Worm in danger!” I tried to follow them, but Mom caught my tail. “Where do you think you’re going, Shorty?” she asked, tugging me back inside. “Um, to help?” “Exactly how would you help the Safety Squad?” She had me there. I was too small for feather pulling or pop-up teasing or any other bird defense maneuvers. I wasn’t even allowed aboveground without a grownup. But I was dying to do something exciting for once. “I could cheer them on,” I said. “Time…

Worms in Danger

ELWYN BROOKS WHITE was a boy who very much liked dogs and ducks and geese and mice. In fact, he liked all of the animals he found around his family’s home. And there were a lot of them—Elwyn, his parents, and his five older siblings lived in a farmhouse in Mount Vernon, New York, surrounded by stables and a big yard. Elwyn chased the ducks, fed the geese, petted the dog, and took carrots to the horses. He studied the birds’ eggs he found in the attic, as well as the roosting, cooing pigeons. Once when he was sick and forced to stay in bed, he befriended a mouse in his room, made it a home, and even taught it tricks. One spring day, Elwyn’s father brought home fifty eggs…

LITTLE YIN AND THE MOO

ONE HOT DAY, Yin heard her mother weeping in a corner of their hut. In her mother’s arms lay Yin’s baby brother, Zhou, who was also crying. Yin drew close, placing a hand on her mother’s arm. “Mother, why do you cry?” Her mother spoke between sobs. “Little Yin, I cry because the fields are almost empty, and the cow has stopped giving milk. Our family is hungry, and I am frightened.” Yin had never seen her mother look so sad or so scared. “Mother, I will find a way to help,” Yin said with determination. She put on her wide straw hat and went out to the stable where their red cow stared over the wooden fence. Yin gently stroked the cow’s forehead. “Cow, why do you not give…

Spider’s Mailbox

Hi, Everybuggy! How are you? I love your magazine! It is the best! My favorite part is the comics on the bottom of the pages. I think you should include more. What is your favorite color, Ophelia? Mine is lavender. Please put Rachel the fly and Stevie the butterfly in your magazine. They both love nectar. Jessie, age 11 Weatherford, Texas Dear Jessie, I love many different shades of blue and purple. Love, Ophelia Hi! Warm regards to Bill, Spider, and the rest of the gang. Hey, Bill! I have a joke for you. Why didn’t Spider cross the road? To prove he wasn’t a chicken (that drum sound that plays in comedy shows whenever someone says something funny). Later, everybuggy! Gus W., age 9 Glenview, Illinois Dear Spider, This…
