This book has great illustrations. It is a book that has 10 caterpillars with different adventures. They each have different ways they go some fall in the sea others climb cabbage and so on. The adventure takes you through each one's exploration and what they eat determines the type of butterfly

This book reminds me so much of Eric Carle. This book would be great to use when learning about insects or with numbers. It has a lot of colorful pictures and it is a rhyming and number book. Great to use with the younger grades when learning numbers.

This book is about ten caterpillars and the butterflies they become. Great book to teach about metamorphosis, as well as counting. Love the illustrations!

Another wonderful collaboration from Ehlert and the late Bill Martin, Jr.

Bill Martin, Jr., has another winner! Cute book, indeed! Love the colorful illustrations, which include little labels of the different plants and animals/insects in the pictures. In the back of the book are illustrations of 10 different caterpillars, what they eat, and the kind of butterfly or moth

they turn into. Interesting and "sciency" on a kid level. Show Less

This book uses counting and pictures and words to show different plants. In the back there are also labeled pictures.

This is an awesome book about caterpillars and could be a lesson over the stages of a butterfly. This book has great vocabulary and at the end of the book there's different pictures of caterpillars and the name with definition.

In this book within the pictures there are labels on the pictures, which is great to help students learn. I also, like the back of the book because it has different types of caterpillars.
