时代广场的蟋蟀

The bustling city backdrop adds so much energy and contrast to the cricket's gentle world. I'm curious if the author envisioned this from the start or if it evolved during writing.

The animals and humans all felt so distinct and memorable. I wonder how much of that was based on real people or animals the author knew.

It added such a delightful layer to the story, making the cricket's adventures feel even more enchanting. Was this inspired by a personal passion or a creative choice?
