Loretta’s Caterpillar (Loretta’s Insects) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Christine Baranek

Loretta’s Caterpillar
By: Lois Wickstrom

As a teacher, I am always excited when I see a new book by Lois Wickstrom. These books are always well written and informative. They explain scientific concepts to children in an engaging way. I truly love reading them to my classes and they love reading them as well. I am a teacher to children ages 4 – 10 and I use each book in a different way with each grade level. This book is not an exception.
I will say that I read this book with a Kindergarten class. They loved it! I did not read this with my other classes because we study the life cycle of butterflies every spring. This will now be a staple during this unit! It is going to be such a great addition I know that each class will love as much as I did reading this!
