Nostalgia Finds : Great story
The very hungry caterpillar is a classic , timeless story that every child should have or read. It was my childhood favorite book and years later it’s my children’s favorite book. This allows your child to learn so much from Days of the week, to counting, different types of food, and the life cycle of a caterpillar from egg to caterpillar to butterfly. Just a great book to read with your child.

Nostalgia
I remember having this book when I was little so now that I have a child of my own, I of course, had to buy the book. It is a much shorter book than I remember, but it is still very cute and such a classic. The colors are very vibrant inside and they keep babies attention. It’s a board book so it holds up well and you don’t have to worry about the pages crinkling.

A timeless classic every kid needs!
An absolute favorite in our house! My kids love turning the pages and counting along as the caterpillar eats his way through all the foods. The story is fun, colorful, and teaches numbers and days of the week in such a sweet way. Perfect for bedtime or story time — truly a must-have for any little one’s bookshelf.
