Eric Carle - The Very Hungry Caterpillar Giant Board Book and Plush package
Back by popular demand, The Very Hungry Caterpillar Giant Board Book with plush caterpillar set is a sturdy, touchable and fun addition to any child's library. In this oversized edition, children can really guide the caterpillar through the holes in the book while they read and count and play, becoming fully immersed in the colorful world of Eric Carle. Learning has never been more fun!
This story is a classic. I love how it encompasses many different teaching points: the life cycle of a butterfly and counting. Eric Carle makes the life cycle so simplistic that it's very easy for children to understand. When he talks about what the caterpillar ate he makes it an opportunity to work with numbers. On the page where he eats the fruit, Carle made the five pages different lengths so you can see one of each fruit, then when you flip each page you see the number of that fruit he ate. I think this is great for children to practice counting. The teacher can have them help her count the number of each as they are reading. On the pages where the caterpillar is eating, each fruit has a hole through it, showing that the caterpillar had eaten through it. I love the visualization of this. The way Carle illustrated the caterpillar, makes him appear very friendly and colorful. In his illustrations he puts faces on the sun and the moon. A lot of the backgrounds are white which put more of a focus on the caterpillar and what is happening.
