Story: The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Author: Eric Carle
About the story:
In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf." So begins Eric Carle's classic, "The Very Hungry Caterpillar".
This book follows the ravenous caterpillar's path as he eats his way through one apple on Monday, two pears on Tuesday, three plums on Wednesday, and so on, through cherry pie and sausage - -until he is really fat and has a stomachache -- I bet you can guess what happens then!
The book has a great story and Eric Carle's wonderful collage-like artistry.
It is good for teaching nutrition, counting, science (stages of a butterfly) and the days of the week.(Source: Internet)
