 My nine month old loves this book March 8, 2010
J. Siljander
I love the size of the book. Its not super big but its not way to small. Its a perfect size. The size brings out the pictures in the book. Would recomend this to any one with kids.

Lovely book. Fabulous story. Great pictures. DON'T buy this version though. You really will need glasses to read it.
Crisp, colorful classic keeps charming and educating February 22, 2010
Elise (plt) (US)
This charming concept book introduces counting and the concept of life stages of a butterfly.The caterpillar, which is very hungry, eats through several different fruits. The pop ups of the fruits have holes punched in, so, there is sensory manipulation for the little ones, in addition to the depiction of fruits on the several pop up pages,inviting them the explore the idea of numbers. Sense of progression is there, as the eating-through happens during several days, and also at the end the caterpillar eats through junk food in a huge amount, and feels bad.Slight touch of humor, and also opportunity for parents to explain a little bit about good nutrition. But at the and there is cocoon stage, and of course transformation in a beautiful butterfly.This maybe not so correct among most the butterflies, but happens seldom, (more among mots), still, there is a kind of butterfly which goes through this stage, so, the science is not totally incorrect, just doesn't apply to the majority of butterflies.the scientific ambiguity didn't bother me.
the language is extremely simple, and the collages are simple, very colorful, and crisp.Science combined with color and cuteness, no wonder this classic for decades keeps charming, and keeps charming in addition to be one of the first exposures to science during tender age of?...
Thank You, Mr. Eric ! February 22, 2010

A classic! February 19, 2010
Melinda (New York, NY)
It is hard to know what to say that hasn't been said before about a classic like this. Beautiful illustrations in a fun layout that still entertains adults while making little ones want to turn each page to see what that caterpillar might have eaten next -- and all the while they are learning how to count! Brilliant!! This is a gift choice that I always return to when one of my friend's babies becomes a toddler! I'd recommend this as a gift for children age 2 through 4 (but it is a classic, so you may want to get it earlier or check with the mom or dad to see if they already have it!)
