  • Great book and character combo!!
The media could not be loaded. This book and character combo is perfect for little hands. The character is soft and colorful. The book is also durable and bright with colors. It is easy to read and fun to play with.

  • Cute plush but very small.
This was a gift to my daughter and grandson. I used to read that book for her every night at bedtime and she wanted to carry on the tradition. Love the book but the plush was very small. It's about the size of your hand. If given the choice I would have picked something much bigger for the money

  • Love it, perfect gift
I got this as a gift for my 2 year old daughter she loves the story and I have read it so many times, we needed an extra copy since she covered our original in pizza stains, but I also wanted her to have some sort of stuffie to go with it, this was perfect. The caterpillar isn’t big like children’s stuffed animals and bears but it’s great to incorporate in the story I use it as I read the story to her. I got a better deal here vs the bookstore which I was extremely happy with because mama is on a budget. ... show more

  • A Classic LOVE this book
"The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle is a classic children's book featuring a distinctive, colorful illustration style. The story follows a tiny caterpillar as it hatches from an egg and eats its way through a variety of foods over the course of a week. As it eats more and more, the caterpillar grows larger until it finally forms a cocoon around itself. After a period of transformation, it emerges as a beautiful butterfly. This hardback edition is designed to be durable for young readers, making it a perfect addition to any child's library. The book is celebrated for its educational value, teaching basic concepts such as numbers, days of the week, and the life cycle of a butterfly. ... show more

  • Pictures are deceiving. It’s tiny.
This caterpillar and book are tiny. I did not look at the measurements(my mistake) but it is much smaller than anticipated. Great first gift for a little one though! Hardback book is great for little hands and caterpillar is machine washable. We have washed ours several times and it is just fine.
