Carle, E. (1987). The very hungry caterpillar. New York: Philomel Books.
The illustrator use bright colors and expressionistic style. The pictures jump out on every page.
The plot in this story is the life cycle of a butterfly. Each page the caterpillar gets closer and closer to becoming a butterfly. The point of view is from the caterpillar's.
The curriculum connection could be used for science as it is the life cycle of the caterpillar. They can use the book to predict what is going to happen next too.
Big questions:
Why is the caterpillar eating so much?
What is going to happen to the caterpillar?
