Product Information
This mini hardcover edition of Eric Carle's classic story begins one sunny Sunday, when the caterpillar was hatched out of a tiny egg. He was very hungry. On Monday, he ate through one apple; on Tuesday, he ate through three plums--and still he was hungry. Strikingly bold, colorful pictures and a simple text in large, clear type tell the story of a hungry little caterpillar's progress through an amazing variety and quantity of foods. Full at last, he made a cocoon around himself and went to sleep, to wake up a few weeks later wonderfully transformed into a butterfly! Brilliantly innovative designer and artist Eric Carle has dramatized the story of one of Nature's commonest yet loveliest marvels, the metamorphosis of the butterfly, in a picture book to delight as well as instruct the very youngest reader or listener. Cleverly die-cut pages show what the caterpillar ate on successive days, graphically introducing sets of up to 10 objects and also the names of the days of the week in rotation, as well as telling the central story of the transformation of the caterpillar. The final, double-page picture of the butterfly is a joyous explosion of color, a vibrant affirmation of the wonder and beauty of Nature. Watch a VideoProduct Identifiers

Now I understand (spoiler)
This book was a good read after I realized I am not supposed to think but just enjoy the book. Reading this book is like watching (good) television. However, if I was a child, I would be totally confused. Where did the egg come from? Why is he so hungry? A good teacher would give a wise answer or if they are willing to spend the month explaining what is going on then they should take the time to do so. Otherwise don’t read the book to your children.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
