The Very Hungry Caterpillar

The main thing I liked from Doctor Seuss was The Sleep Book. You just know he had to be high when he wrote that.

But in general, the Very Hungry Caterpillar is just pure awesomeness in children's book form.
 
Oooh! Oooh!

Oh WOW.

I haven't seen that book in AGES. ;;Is getting a sudden influx of memories;; Aaah, when I was young, I reread it many times to see how many AR Points I could milk out of it. (Don't ask what I'm talking about~) And I don't really remember what happened at all.

D: He ate a ton of food and got a tummyache, so he built a cacoon and became a butterfly.I think.

Also, I loved Green Eggs and Ham but my favorite was One Fish, Two Fish. :D
 
BEEP

WRONG

The best kids book ever is (objectively) Winnie the Pooh. You all lose.

HELL YES Winnie the Pooh is epic freaking win. <3

I don't think I ever actually read The Very Hungry Caterpillar, but I did read some Eric Carle stuff. I was mostly raised on Dr. Seuss, though. xD

This still brings back so many fond childhood memories... just of the association with all those other kids' books...
 
Eric Carle was my absolute favorite author as a kid. Actually, he still is one of my favorites. I still have a bunch of them XD

This book is a worldwide phenomenon. Really, it's the best part of my childhood memories.

P.S. Say isn't your avatar from the original Rayman games?

Haha, I don't remember being read it, but we had a video with it on.

Yes, my old avi was of one of my fave baddies.
 
Arylett, I'm going to try and use that book for an AR test one day.

THIS BOOK IS EPIC WIN.
I remember reading it when I was a baby, I must but it from Borders or Barnes N' Nobles now.
 
Hehe; The Very Hungry Caterpillar is on my Facebook list of "Favourite books ever". XD
But it so is; everyone remembers this book... it was so beautifully illustrated with the slightly creepy sun and the bright food that he ate... and al the holes in the food! Absolutely amazing <3

We read it in Japanese class and had so much fun sounding out the hiragana "peko-peko" X3

There's a shop in down that sells Very Hungry Caterpillar (and Elmer the Elephant, who I also used to adore) plushies. I want one so badly, but they're about £20/$40 :/
 
I never liked Winnie the Pooh
I guess my immaturity towards his name stopped me from giving him a chance. xD
 
Calvin & Hobbes is at least twice as badass as Winnie the Pooh.

But then Calvin & Hobbes is a comic, so.

What does it mean?



I remember this book... It was sort of awesome. Only read it a couple of times though, at First school (Gogogo strange schooling system~) :3
 
Haha. I remember this book all too well. Individual classes had to do performances of some description so in the first year at school, we did this book. People were dressed up as all the different items of food. I remember someone wearing a giant cardboard cheese.

Isn't there a book like this about a spider building a web?
