Eric Carle Carle E - The gluttonous caterpillar reviews
Product details
Product description
A little caterpillar comes out of its egg, very hungry, and sets off to look for food. On Monday it finds an apple, on Tuesday it eats two pears, on Wednesday three plums and so on, until Saturday when its belly already hurts from how much it has eaten. It recovers by nibbling on a tender, green leaf… It then retreats, very tired, into its cocoon and sleeps for two weeks. When it wakes up and comes out of the cocoon, it transforms into a beautiful butterfly. The hardcover pages, with cutouts and rounded corners, turn this book into a real toy, attractive and durable. "The Very Hungry Caterpillar is one of the most successful picture books ever published, a true symbol of childhood." (New York Times) This story about a small caterpillar that metamorphoses into a beautiful butterfly, disarming in its simplicity, has been appreciated by generations of children, parents and educators. It is loved for its message of hope, for the collages with wonderful color combinations or the holes that mark the caterpillar's path and stimulate the fingers of little readers to discover it, also beginning their journey into the extraordinary world of books. "Forty years ago, while experimenting with making holes in paper with a hole punch, I imagined a worm gnawing at the page, and that's how the idea for the book was born. For me, The Eating Caterpillar is a story about hope, and I'm so glad it's loved all over the world. I hope this story continues to delight readers of all ages, and I hope its message encourages as many children as possible to grow and develop in a positive way."
