The Cricket in Times Square

After Chester, a cricket, arrives in Times Square subway station via a picnic basket from his native Connecticut, he takes up residence in the Bellinis' newsstand.  There, the tiny creature is luck enough to find three good friends: a little boy named Mario whose parents run the unsuccessful newsstand, a fast-talking Boradway mouse named Tucker and his pal, Harry the Cat.  Throughout their escapades and their ups and downs in New York City, together they somehow managed to bring success to the almost bankrupt newsstand.
