The Very Hungry Caterpillar By: Eric Carle

On a leaf one night lay a little egg. The egg hatched on Sunday and he was so hungry! On Monday he ate through one red apple. On Tuesday he ate through two green pears. On Wednesday he ate through three purple plums. On Thursday he ate through four red strawberries. On Friday he ate through five oranges. On Saturday he ate through: chocolate cake, ice cream, a pickle, swiss cheese, a cherry, a lolipop, a sausage, a cupcake, and a watermelon. He had a tummy ache! On Sunday he ate through a leaf, and that made him feel better. He forms a coccon and sometime later comes out as a beautiful butterfly.
