This is a colorful book showing the progression of a caterpillar's life from childhood to becoming a butterfly. There is a fabric-covered spring inside the book which makes the caterpillar look like it is moving from page to page. The rhyming words are fun, but may be a bit hard for young children

to understand. It is a good book for a parent to explain while reading. My son doesn't like bugs very much, so he wasn't excited about the book.

This clever board book for young readers tells of a caterpillar’s springtime adventure with a simple rhyming text and colorful illustrations. A flexible spring incorporated into the illustrations stretches and winds through each picture, mimicking a caterpillar’s crawling movements.
The

caterpillar visits the bugs, eats, and grows until it’s time for him to go to sleep. And when he awakens, there’s an enchanting pop-up surprise guaranteed to delight the youngster.

Recommended.
