“In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf."
And so begins the classic bedtime story of a famished caterpillar who eats his way through a week of various foods.
“On Monday he at through one apple. But he was still hungry. On Tuesday he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry. On Wednesday he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry. . . .”
A lovely story about the eventual transformation of a caterpillar who turns into a beautiful butterfly.
With bright, colourful illustrations in Eric Carle’s signature-style of brightly coloured collage, and finger poke holes on several pages for children to enjoy.
