One sunny Sunday morning, a little caterpillar emerges from an egg, eager to satisfy his enormous appetite. On Monday he eats through an apple, on Tuesday he eats through two pears, and on Wednesday he eats through three plums. Will he ever be satisfied?

With its vibrant collage pictures and unique die-cut pages, this timeless book has become a classic that continues to thrill young readers.
