pickEric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a delightful and educational story about transformation and the days of the week. Through the vibrant illustrations, it takes children on a journey from caterpillar to butterfly. The book is a perfect choice for teaching about life cycles
Does anyone know this eastern US caterpillar snacking on our geraniums?? We can‘t find it on google. 🤔🐛🤔
So life is conspiring to make this spoonie really tired, but I have finished a few books, and they are three of the best books I‘ve read this month. (Two 4.5⭐️ and a 5⭐️!) And while I‘m will to dash off an okay review for an okay book, I‘d really like to do these justice. 🤞🏻 I get to them tonight or tomorrow morning.
pickThe Very Hungry Caterpillar is a feast for the eyes, and I enjoy him merrily munching away in full technicolour. I feel like Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? is the prequel to The Artist Who Painted A Blue Horse, (i.e. rainbow menagerie) but that's probably adult reading order bias. Still completely in love with Eric Carle's enthusiastically colourful style.

“On Thursday he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry”
pickOne of my favorites from my childhood. The illustrations bring such attention to the book and it is so recognizable. It shows the kids how eating food helps you grow!
Question for the moms: what the heck are these crinkle sounding books called? Aquamarina can hold it now and loves it so wanna maybe get her more for Christmas 🥰
Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over. It became a beautiful butterfly.
I love the page in the story when the caterpillar is eating anything it can find like ice cream and cake.
pickAnother one of my all time favorite picture books. The story follows a caterpillar who is extremely hungry. The caterpillar finds a great many things to eat as it grows until it eventually becomes a butterfly.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a children‘s picture book, designed, illustrated, and written by Eric Carle. The book includes counting, days of the week, different types of food, and a butterfly‘s life cycle!
“On Saturday he ate through one piece of cake, one ice cream cone, one pickle, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake, and one slice of watermelon.“
Look everyone! It's finally up! Now everyone can feed The Very Hungry Library! 😁

Once upon a time, there lived a Caterpillar 🐛 that was HUNGRY for adventure. One day he awoke with bravery in his tiny green heart and headed out into his world, with a long path ahead of him. He knew it was not going to be easy, but through perseverance and a big ‘leaf‘ of faith - he would make it to the end! Where his wings would take him far beyond…wearing his technicolour dream coat, soaring towards the end of a rainbow. #parody #ericcarle
pickI love this classic that teaches so much - the transformation from caterpillar to butterfly, counting, the naming of different fruits - and as always with Carle‘s illustrations, bright and cheerful.
In my search for challenged/banned books for #BBRC , I discovered that this #PictureBook was challenged in Australia for being detrimental to children. Specifically, it promoted child obesity. #LetterV
Here's the entire #veryhungrylibrary as you can see, all Eric Carle inspired.
I think for many of us he opened the door for our love of reading. I hope that by people opening the doors to my Little Free Library it will open the door to a new book they love.
Update... I left it white. 🤷♀️
Thanks for the input everyone! 😘
I think I'm done. Just need to seal it now.

Okay, I need your opinion. Do I put the dots behind the lettering or leave it white? 🤔
I'm just afraid that the dots will make it harder to read.

‘On Monday he ate through one apple. But he was still hungry.‘ This is a monarch caterpillar munching away at milkweed. I planted the entire side of my yard in native plants. It‘s quite overgrown and I love all the nature-activity it creates! Black-eyed Susan‘s are my state flower! ❤️

I loved these books when I was little and I love that now I get to share them with my Nieces and Nephews 🥰

My favorite is probably the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe room, but all are delightful. My son already has an Eric Carle rug in his room, though, so I feel like we're a step ahead on the tagged book.

Tagged the hungry caterpillar because he is an absolute boob monster already 🤣🥰
@TheNeverendingTBR 🖤
Hungry caterpillars and busy bees are making up the view around here. While it felt like autumn this morning, it heated up to the 80s by this afternoon.

Sorry.
I couldn‘t resist. 🤣💀

Such a brilliant book.

R.I.P., Eric Carle.
I don‘t believe in angels...but I‘d like to think that somewhere, somehow, this beautiful artist now has wings. ?
The #babylitten wore his Very Hungry Caterpillar shirt in honor of Eric Carle and Lois Ehlert; we don't have a shirt of hers, but do have the beautiful books.
A very sad loss to the children's book world 😔 brought much joy for myself as a kid and sharing with my own children. Rest in peace beautiful soul 📖🐛📚 🦋 #sadloss #greatauthor #childrens #classic #caterpillar #ericcarle #litsylove
“`Caterpillar‘ is a book of hope: you, too, can grow up and grow wings.”
I remember my mom reading this book, and many others of Carle's, to me growing up. She loved his books and wanted to share them with me and my siblings. They played a huge part in my childhood and some of the best memories I have of my mother are with these books. I will always cherish what Carle has gifted to me - memories, stories, encouragement, joy. He will be missed.
Oh no!
pickRIP Eric Carle. My kids and I grew a love for reading through your classics 🐛🍎
This world lost an iconic author today.
I definitely remember Eric Carle books being a huge part of my childhood.
This is so sad.
I know I‘ll have fellow Littens that understand.
😢✍🏻😔📚😭
so-so
