..... he wasn't a little caterpillar anymore, 25 Feb 2006

By	"jam600" - See all my reviews

An excellent book, my little girl has enjoyed this right upto 2 and a half years old.

Helps with numbers, days of the week, colours and even the life cycle of caterpillars.

A fun book, an enjoyable book and even an educational book. A must-have for all toddlers and babies.

It doesnt get any better than this!, 16 Jul 2006

By	A. Matthews (Wakefield, England) - See all my reviews

I loved this book as a child and was worried that I would be disappointed when I read it to my son but I find it just as enjoyable now if not more so, seeing him delight in all the different foods (not to mention poking his chubby fingers through the holes!)
Every child should have a copy of this book!
