The Very Hungry Caterpillar's 123

Eric Carle's much-loved character The Very Hungry Caterpillar has come to life in this delightful finger puppet book.

Babies and toddlers can join in the fun as the plush caterpillar finger puppet wriggles his way through the holes in each page. They can help the caterpillar munch and crunch through the food before transforming into a beautiful butterfly!
