The Glow in Loretta’s Garden (Loretta’s Insects) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Carrie Reed

The Glow in Loretta’s Garden by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

An introduction to fireflies. Everyone loves catching fireflies when they are young, I like how Loretta is interested in the life of the fireflies and tries to watch them in her ant farm, until she has to set them free so they can fly and glow. Reading the information on fireflies at the end, I can see how Loretta was to be experiencing all the stages of a fireflies life but the wording didn’t translate well, and I was left kind of confused. My favorite part of the book is the information about the life of a firefly at the end, I was interested to know they are considered beetles, and that they glow in all stages of their life.
