No nursery bookshelf is complete without this book. FACT.
The story of a caterpillar from hatching to becoming a beautiful butterfly. Follow him as he eats his way through everything in sight and teaches little ones numbers, days of the week and colours along the way.
**Great Birthday Party Idea**
I think The Very Hungry Caterpillar makes a great birthday party theme. There is a whole collection of partyware already available but, what about this for a brilliant decoration? I can’t wait to try this for Miss Marnie’s next Birthday party….
