The Very Hungry Caterpillar

I really enjoyed this book as it is a really good book to read to children to help them with counting and days of the well whilst incorporating the journey of a butterfly.

I read this to my little brother, we like counting the fuit and listing all the the things he ate on saturday. I am so pleased I can read this myself now

My favourite book

I liked all the food he ate!

I love this book. I would definitely recommend it to someone else.

I know this story off by heart, it’s a favourite

The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle is a timeless children’s classic that charms readers through simple narrative and vibrant collage artwork. The story follows a tiny caterpillar who hatches on Sunday and eats his way through an increasingly varied menu from fresh fruit to indulgent treats like chocolate cake and salami before building a cocoon and emerging as a beautiful butterfly. With its clever die-cut page holes, interactive elements, and rhythmic prose, it is a perfect bedtime read that seamlessly teaches young children the days of the week, counting, basic healthy choices, and the magical cycle of metamorphosis.

Handa’s Surprise by Eileen Browne is a delightful children’s classic that uses dramatic irony to captivate young readers. As Handa travels to a neighboring Kenyan village with a basket of seven fruits balanced on her head, various sneaky local animals steal the treats one by one without her noticing. Just as her basket becomes completely empty, a surprise twist restores the fruit in an unexpected way, leaving both girls thrilled. With its vibrant illustrations, simple repetitive text, and engaging story, it is a wonderful book for teaching counting, animal recognition, and the joy of sharing.

I love caterpillars and beautiful butterflies

Love the fruits

This is my favourite book. I love how the caterpillar turns into a beautiful butterfly

I absolutely love this book. It is so bright and colourful, and the pictures are wonderful to look at. I enjoyed following the caterpillar’s journey and seeing what he eats each day. It made me feel happy and cheerful, and it feels like such a warm, timeless story. I also like how it gently teaches counting, days of the week, and how a caterpillar changes into a butterfly. It is short, sweet, and very easy to follow. I would recommend this to any young child, especially those who love nature, animals, and beautiful pictures.

Read to my baby brother, his favourite book. Good pictures.

I love the beautiful butterfly as it’s rainbow

This is a classic children's book that teaches children about the life cycle of a caterpillar and how it transforms from a caterpillar into a butterfly. It uses bright colours that can captivate young children and introduces them to different types of food that the caterpillar eats along its journey. I enjoyed how simple and engaging the story is, making it easy for young children to follow and enjoy. I would recommend this book to younger readers, particularly children in Early Years and KS1, as it can also support learning about counting, food and the life cycle of a butterfly. There are no significant content warnings for this book.

I like the bit where the butterfly comes out the best. I would recommend this book to my friends.

I really enjoyed reading this book, the caterpillar was very hungry.

good

It’s always really interesting book and discover how a beautiful butterfly came to life it’s amazing nature

this was fun.

It was the best I loved it

I like that it is a tiny baby caterpillar and it eats lots and lots and lots and turns into a big fat caterpillar and then a cocoon and big beautiful caterpillar.
I like the colours and the pictures and the holes in the food.
I like counting the amount of food and naming what the caterpillar is eating.

I like the holes in the book and the way it is interactive. However it upsets me when he feels sick.

My favorite part is when the caterpillar turned into a butterfly

I liked that the caterpillar was very hungry because it was funny that he ate 5 peaces of fruit. After eating a leaf he was feeling good then he became bigger and turned into a cocoon and he bloomed into a beautiful sparkly butterfly.

I like when the caterpillar turns into a butterfly and pointing out all the colours!

I like when the caterpillar eats one apple on Monday (and continue for the whole week!). I like when he eats all the food on Saturday. I like when he gets to a butterfly.

My favourite part was the cocoon because when he pop out I liked it but the fruit is making him too fat in the cocoon and he couldn’t barely fit in

So, I loved when the very hungry caterpillar turned in to a butterfly.

Love this one and how the caterpillar changes
