3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected March 19, 2011
Format:Board book|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was expecting a finger puppet version of The Very Hungry Caterpillar. My fault for assuming that based on the very vague description. However, the text is severely lacking. It is a basic counting book that literally says "1 delicious apple, 2 crisp pears...." The book only goes to 5, and I doubt there are more than a couple dozen words in the book. And, the caterpillar looks part bunny.

Despite that, my 2 year old enjoys counting and pretending to eat the fruit, and kissing the bunnypillar. He'd give this book 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for the very young January 1, 2012
Format:Board book|Amazon Verified Purchase
I got several of these to give away as baby gifts. I got them all at a great price. I would recommend this as a gift for a very young child, or as a "first book" for a toddler.

Adorable book for my little man! He loves grabbing the caterpillar as it wiggles around the book (which is of course really my finger)!

its story is much simpler than the original storybook except that it has a finger puppet in the center of this boardbook.

I didn't know it would be so small - And I needed the actual version of it, not just the puppet and numbers, my fault though, I didn't look closely enough...

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what i thought
I thought this was the whole book with the puppet. But it is a simple counting book not a story. Cute but not what i thought.
