You can't go wrong with Eric Carle, and this one is a classic. I began reading it to my twins when they were 6 months and they instantly loved it. I also used to teach kindergarten and did an entire unit based on this book. The kids learned the days of the week, foods, and the life cycle of a caterpillar, all in one book!

Absolutely the best children's books. Very heavy paper and lots of repetition for young children.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a great children's story. My son's PreK teacher helped them make sock puppets to act out the story. Now he is in Kindergarten, but he still pulls out the little bag and does the story with his younger sister. Highly recommend this story.
