The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Eric CarleI'm not sure that I know anyone that didn't grow up reading this book! A classic since published in 1969, it has sold over 30 million copies.*
It teaches the days of the week, counting to 5, types of food and the transformation of a caterpillar to a butterfly - and it's fun because you can poke your fingers through the pages! We can all recite it from memory in our house.
I love books that you remember reading as a child, that remain just as popular when you want to read them to your own children.
One recommendation - get the board book, perfect for baby and toddler hands.
