The Glow in Loretta’s Garden (Loretta’s Insects) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Shannen Kern

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

My entire household loves this author, and the kids get so excited when I bring a new book home. Imagine their surprise when it was centered on their favorite insect, lightning bugs! When Loretta happens upon some luminous larvae, she is intrigued and embarks on a journey to understand the life cycle of these new creatures. I love the way the author is able to flawlessly weave educational tidbits without losing the interest of kiddos. The illustrations were a little different from other books by Lois, but they are still wonderful and helpful for the young ones to gain more context. I loved the facts about fireflies even as an adult! These books always spark such wonderful conversations with my kids. I highly recommend having this in your classroom or at home and letting it light up your little one’s curiosity!
