Wonderful classic in a form perfect for little hands
Of course Eric Carle is a classic children's author and as far as I know this is his most well-known book. I love it in this small board book form, it's perfect for little hands and little fingers to poke through the holes from our caterpillar friend!

Great book!
My baby loves this book that we had to get a second one when he destroyed the first one. It's a great board book, the pictures are helpful to teach, he likes putting his fingers in the little holes, and it tells the life cycle of a butterfly. He's 2 now and still loves this book.

The Quintessential Toddler Staple—Sturdy, Educational, and Iconic
The Physical Edition (Board Book): I received the board book edition, and for a household with a 2-year-old, it is the only way to go. The pages are thick, the binding is tight, and—most importantly—the die-cut holes are sturdy enough to survive constant finger-poking without fraying. It’s a book that’s built to be "manhandled." Beyond the charming story, I was impressed by how many concepts are packed into such a short read: Counting: My child loves pointing to the fruits and counting along.

An absolute favorite in our house! My kids love turning the pages and counting along as the caterpillar eats his way through all the foods. The story is fun, colorful, and teaches numbers and days of the week in such a sweet way. Perfect for bedtime or story time — truly a must-have for any little one’s bookshelf.
