Praying Mantis sighting

Dear Ophelia,

When I was 5 or 6, I saw a praying mantis on my window screen. Do you know him or her? I was scared at first, but then I figured it wouldn't hurt me. My favorite color is red. What is your favorite color (if you have one)?

Have a wonderful day!

Sincerely,

Tricia

Dear Tricia,

 

I think you may have seen my Uncle Oliver - he lives in Indiana! It sounds like you were very brave. And you're right that Uncle Oliver wouldn't hurt you - he's a very nice man(tis).
My favorite color is green!

 

Love,

Ophelia
