The Very Hungry Caterpillar

by Eric Carle

This is one of the first books I ever read, and I still love it now.  It's about a caterpillar that eats and eats and eats until the day it makes itself a Christlike and becomes a butterfly

Audience
I've seen this one in a board book for toddlers, and I think anyone through second grade would love it.

What I Love:
The pictures are all gorgeous, and I love the hidden lesson about nutrition.  When the caterpilar eats healthy, he feels good.  When he eats junk, he feels miserable.

Cautions:
It's written for young children.  This one doesn't have the All Ages tag
