Strengths:
This is a great visual book, and a great tool for counting. It goes through what the caterpillar eats on each day of the week, and is the type of picture book where the pages lead onto the next and the children get really excited flipping them. It does a great job of showing the stages of a caterpillar’s life in a way that children can understand. The pictures are bright and fun and really go with the text.

Concerns:
I don’t really have any concerns with this book, I think it is a great book for children at any age. It is informative and fun, and accomplishes everything it is meant to do.

Classroom use/Other comments:
This book can be used in a variety of ways. It can be used in science, to learn about caterpillars and butterflies. It can also be used to help children learn to count, and the days of the week. It is also just a fun story that children can listen to at the beginning or end of the day when they need a break. It is one of my favorite books!
