Customer Reviews

Excellent purchase
My grandchildren love this story! The larger format board book is very colorful and easy for little hands to manage. I found it a real bonus to hear the author, Eric Carle, read his own work and the kids can listen and read along.

Children's Must Have
This book is a must-have for any children's library and was a favorite for both of my boys. When my oldest son was four, he memorized the entire book, and so we built a puppet theater and puppets for his precious performances. I recently purchased the book again for a new one year old niece, and the now teenage boys love sharing the enchantment with our family's new little one. This sturdy board book version ensures that our little one will have pages in tact a few years from now when she's ready to memorize.

Munch, munch, munch!
This book is great in that it not only teaches the life cycle of a butterfly, counting to 5, the names of the days of the week, and about different types of food. The actual holes in the book create an intrigue and imagination that a caterpillar really munched his way through.

The easy-to-read worlds makes good teaching tool for young children.
