Description
A classic children's picture book by Eric Carle, The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a story that almost everyone has read. The book was originally published in 1969 and uses collage-style illustrations and simple, child-friendly language.
A great way to introduce the concept of days of the week, The Very Hungry Caterpillar follows one little bug as he prepares to become a butterfly. It can also be used to teach counting, and for learning about a butterfly's life stages.

By the end of the week, the caterpillar has grown and works his way through cake, ice cream, cheese, a pie, a lollipop and other treats and goodies. Children will love the different-sized pages, with small holes where the caterpillar has nibbled his way through the food. This is a great book to read at bedtime, with a happy ending in the form of a bright and colourful butterfly.
