On Monday he ate through….
This was one of Ned’s Christmas presents; a Very Hungry Caterpillar hand puppet that we bought from Borders. Many people comment on it because it is so well made, cuddly and looks exactly like the real thing. It’s not often that you can find plush that actually looks like the character and it’s so much fun using the puppet to tell the story. I thought it was quite cheap at $29.95. Borders also had a Beautiful Butterfly hand puppet and The Very Hungry Caterpillar Board Game, they are availabe on Amazon too. Amazon also has this bedding which is way too cute…

Mattie’s favourite, we can read it every day, several times a day! Always has a big, hearty laugh when the turning page reveals a big, fat, not-so-hungry-anymore caterpillar. Have by now mastered by heart our own Polish version of the story, which we “read”. Thanks for your blog, it’s great and has so many great book ideas.
