Why groups read Eric Carle
Eric Carle made picture books that children want to touch: bright tissue-paper collage, die-cut pages and stories about counting, days of the week and growing up. The Very Hungry Caterpillar is the one most readers remember, and it still opens many a first story time.
For classrooms and libraries, the appeal is how many ways one book can be used. A caterpillar teaches days of the week and counting in pre-K, life cycles in kindergarten and sequencing in first grade. The Very Busy Spider and The Tiny Seed pair with science units, and Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?, which Carle illustrated for Bill Martin Jr., is a first-reader favorite for color and animal words.
Board book, paperback and hardcover editions are listed separately, and some titles come in Spanish. If you need one format across a whole group, or a mix of titles in one order, a specialist replies within 1 business day: request a quote.
