You tease the readers with this...I hope you add to it.
Your storyline is creative and your character is likable.

Does unpin need to be capitalized?

I weigh up my options, maybe i will be able to see the coast from that dune, then i will take it from there.

Review of More than song  
Rated: E | (4.5)
Overall Impressions:
Your title, rating and genres are appropriate.

Very pretty and sweet poem.
I love that you are telling your story from a cricket's p.o.v.
Very creative.

Suggestions:
some small ones~~
She came and had her baby in the stable, on the hay.
I'd cut the comma in this line.

Watch your use of filler words.
(the, that, and...)
Removing some of them will help with the read/flow of your poem.

ex
They claimed he was a king and then they bowed down by his side.
try
They claimed he was a king and then bowed down by his side.

I watched in awe, surprised, at all the gifts that they did bring,

My Overall impression:
Your rating, title and genres are good.
I enjoyed your story and the walk through the pet store.

Your story holds some reminders and makes one think.
Your story flows well and I wasn't left with any questions.

I did not notice any typos or errors.
Good job!

Suggestions/Errors:
In a few areas it is really hard to believe that your character is only nine years old.
It could be just the way you phrase things.
ex
When he asks about the meaning of life...would a nine year old ask it like that?
Also the part on the pets..like the fish only defecating and being low maintenance.
With some different word choices I think this would be more believable.

My Overall impression:
Your title and rating are good.
What a twist at the end, I wasn't expecting it at all.

Suggestions/Errors:
Add some genres.

I'd suggest spacing after the dialog and maybe putting this into 3-4 paragraphs.
It will be easier for your readers to follow the dialog and it will help with the overall presentation of your story.

I think you should expand a little on this, set up the characters and their relationships a bit more.
