A Toddler’s Interpretation of the Very Hungry Caterpillar Book

I’ve written before about our daughter’s Very Hungry Caterpillar obsession. (Don’t all toddlers love Eric Carle books?)

Several months ago we started working on our own version of the book.

This week we finally devoted some time to finish up the project.

We cut out food items featured in the book (from Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar Activity Pad) and drew caterpillars on each page of our blank board book.

We added Eric Carle’s text from his original book.

We made a cover for our book.

Since completing our version, we’ve read it time and time again.

A simple, fun, literary project!

Materials:
– Blank board book from Bare Books
– Stencils and decorated tissue paper (evidently called artwork sheets) part of the Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar Activity Pad
