Classic and timeless

Customer Rating:
I didn't grow up with English-language chidren literature classic books, so I was not thrilled with the book at first. My daughter was, and still is. We had The Very Hungry Caterpillar since she was about 3 months, and she keeps returning to it every two weeks or so. When she started to say more (at about 18 months), I realized that she knows the whole story by heart. I would make a pause in the story, and she would say the next word. Her favorite page in the entire book is Caterpillar's Saturday feast. Oh, by the way, I know it by heart now too, and I absolutely love both the story and illustrations. You can say that it grew on me.

Great fun!

Classic

This is a great board book, not too annoying to read over and over again. My 5-month-old son really responds to the beautiful illustrations.

My toddler loves this book

Customer Rating:
We got this book from the library and my son loves it. We own The Mixed-up Chameleon book, but my son isn't as into that one, maybe it's for kids who are a bit older, as my son isn't quite 2. However, this book seems to be perfect for him, he loves to put his fingers in the holes the catapiller ate into everything. So, I'd say this might be the best Eric Carle book for the young toddlers, esp. since it's not a long story.

LOVE this book
