Jiminy Crickets Great Grandson

Who is he? We asked, for crickets always do. No idea, but he is smitten with your cousin Lu. We watched his long legs jump high over the dew. Wow! We all said, he is a tight jumper too! He is Jiminy Cricket’s great-grandson Lu told me. I was stunned, astounded, how could this be? Jiminy Cricket had been a shrimp, with barely a leg. I tried to pretend I believed her as I scarfed down an egg.
