the very hungry caterpillar

     

The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a chilren's book written by Eric Carle, originally published in 1969. It is highly popular and has been praised for its use of easy-to-read words which makes it good for teaching young children to read. The story has been translated into over 50 languages and, as of 2005, a copy is sold roughly every 57 seconds. It was featured on Sesame Street in the early 1990s. It was also adapted for TV in 1993 by the U.K.'s Illuminated Film Company (producers of The Snowman) as part of an anthology called "The World of Eric Carle" that included four other Carle stories, namely: The Very Quiet Cricket, The Mixed Up Chameleon, Papa, Please Get The Moon For Me, and I See A Song. Narration on the UK DVD of the programmes entitles "The Very Hungry Caterpillar and other stories" is performed by Roger McGough and Juliet Stevenson, whilst - in the U.S. Walt Diney distributed version - the voices used are those of Brian Cummings and Linda Gary. The programmes were directed by Andrew Goff.
