The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Picture book in very good condition. Some light scratches on cover. Ages 1-3.
“One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and —pop!—out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.”
One sunny Sunday, 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. When 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.
The brilliantly innovative Eric Carle has dramatized the story of one of Nature’s commonest yet loveliest marvels, the metamorphosis of the butterfly.
