4.0 out of 5 stars a small-sized version of the original bestseller, 26 Nov 2000
By A Customer
I was disappointed at the small size of the board book - even tiny fingers find it hard to poke through the holes munched by the caterpillar. The little toy is cute, I had thought that he would be able to 'eat his way through the holes in the pages', but as stated above the book is too small. Having said that , The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a classic enjoyed by my children 20 years ago and still popular today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great take on an all time favourite., 20 Mar 2009
This gift set is the perfect size for a little child from age 6 months.. My grandson loves to look at the pictures in the board book & the caterpillar toy goes straight into his mouth! A great buy, and reasonably priced.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Hungry Caterpillar, 16 May 2009

(REAL NAME)   
An old favourite you can read over and over again. Good for promoting counting, sequencing and days of week - very educational.
