The Very Hungry Caterpillar / La oruga muy hambrienta (Bilingual, English/Spanish) (First Book Special Edition) (Board Book)

One Sunday a very hungry caterpillar hatched. After eating his way through one apple, two pears, three plums, and lots and lots of other goodies the caterpillar spins a cocoon and wakes up as a butterfly—illustrating one of nature's common but lovely marvels. With its bold and humorous illustrations and wonderful narrative about this growing caterpillar, Eric Carle's story will touch anyone who still has some growing to do.
