Product Description
As a tiny green caterpillar eats his way through the book, he is transformed into a beautiful butterfly, in a board book edition of the classic picture book.
Amazon.com Reviews
"In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf." So begins Eric Carle's modern classic, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. More than 12 million copies of this book have been sold in its original, full-sized edition, and the beloved tale of science and gluttony has been translated into 20 languages. This five-by-four-inch miniature edition is truly tiny, with tiny type, but it is a nice size for small hands to hold and flip through the pictures. Despite its diminished state, the book is complete in every detail, following the ravenous caterpillar's path as he eats his way through one apple (and the pages of the book itself) on Monday, two pears on Tuesday, three plums on Wednesday, and so on, through cherry pie and sausage--until he is really fat and has a stomachache. And no doubt you know what happens next! Kids love butterfly metamorphosis stories, and this popular favorite teaches counting and the days of the week, too. A fun gift package for caterpillar fans. (Baby to preschool) --Karin Snelson

 Great fun! August 24, 2008
Learn numbers, colors, days of the week, and food items, not to mention the wonderful artwork.
Classic August 8, 2008
This is a great board book, not too annoying to read over and over again. My 5-month-old son really responds to the beautiful illustrations.
My toddler loves this book July 14, 2008
We got this book from the library and my son loves it. We own The Mixed-up Chameleon book, but my son isn't as into that one, maybe it's for kids who are a bit older, as my son isn't quite 2. However, this book seems to be perfect for him, he loves to put his fingers in the holes the catapiller ate into everything. So, I'd say this might be the best Eric Carle book for the young toddlers, esp. since it's not a long story.
LOVE this book July 13, 2008
As a teacher this is a great book to inspire reading in students and my grandchildren!
My favorite book June 30, 2008
My parents read tons of books to me when I was little, but I remember this one was my favorite. Of course I bought it for my daughter who, hopefully, will enjoy it when she gets a little older! I always give this one as a baby present- it's a classic.
