My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When Loretta’s Grammie Stella comes to visit from Florida, she brings an orange tree for her. Loretta discovers aphids on it that Grammie tells her to get rid of or they will kill her plant. Loretta does not want to get rid of the aphids because she likes insects. Then Loretta discovers a katydid on the tree that ate the aphids but is also eating her tree. Loretta is unsure what to do to keep her orange tree alive to take to the science fair. Should she keep the katydid? Will her orange tree survive?

This is the fourth book in the Loretta’s Insects series and like the other books it is fun and informative. This book teaches about insects and the roles they play while also being entertaining. It is beautifully illustrated and easy to read. I have really been enjoying this series and learning about insects alongside Loretta. A great read for children of all ages.
