Description:
On Sunday a caterpillar hatches from his egg. On Monday he eats an apple. On Tuesday he eats two pears. On Wednesday he eats three plums. The hungry caterpillar eats more and more food for every day of the week. What will happen to the caterpillar after all this eating? Die-cut pages and colorfully textured collage illustrations accompany the simple text. Introducing readers to colors, foods, numbers, the days of the week, and the concept of metamorphosis, THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR is the first book in Carle's extremely popular Very series that includes such other titles as THE VERY QUIET CRICKET and THE VERY BUSY SPIDER.

Customer Reviews
My granddaughters LOVE this book and has been their favorite. I ordered two of these for gifts. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning while reading- colors, shapes, objects, etc.

My daughter loves this book. The pages vary in length which makes it easy for her to grasp. She can spend quite a bit of time flipping through it and then sitting with me while I read it and she flips the pages. Overall, a good value.

Great for the little ones! Purchased for my 15 month old and she enjoys "feeling" the holes in the book that the caterpillar creates. A winner!

Great start to baby's library; I'd definitely buy the "real" version of this book for an older toddler, but when they're still so little they don't know their own strength (or the power of a drooly fist!), these board books are a great buy.

This is the 3rd time I am buying this book, for baby #3. The other books were worn to pieces from reading and reading and them playing with them for the 1st 2 years of their lives. Now expecting baby #3, I hope to wear out another. Very good book! I recommend all of Eric Carl books for your children.
