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 Review
"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

 Charming Classic October 9, 2008
The classic story about the little catepillar who starts at the beginning of the week as an egg, becames a very hungry catepiller and winds up as a butterfly.
The book helps teach the days of the week, various foods and numbers as the catepillar winds the way through the week before the transformation into thee butterfly.
Superb illustrations and colors are appealing and my children as always entertained by this book.
Hungry Hungry Hungry October 1, 2008
This is a great version of the classic. Our 1-year old loves it, and it's hard to destroy.
Great Children's Book September 11, 2008
I ordered this book to use for a Project Linus Book and Blanket Challenge. Some child that has had a trama in their life with appreciate the book and homemade quilt. Project Linus is a wonderful organization and all who participate should be congratulated.
As good as they get for little ones September 10, 2008
Hungry caterpillar is great for 3-5 yr olds. Youngest to Older: Goodnight Moon, then Guess How Much I Love You, then Very Hungry Caterpillar. They are then ready for Suess.
Just plainly classic, a thing what kids love to see September 9, 2008
Nothing to say new or much about this classic book. Even the youngest child can be attracted to this book. Our very very young son giggles when we reach the colorful Monday to Saturday pages. All the different colors stand out, and the story brings back memories. It is something that every home should have. After two kids and reading it countless times, it is still fun to read it, and thus you won't get tired of reading it for your kids.
