What is La oruga muy hambrienta/The Very Hungry Caterpillar Bilingual Board Book about?

A tiny caterpillar hatches from an egg and soon develops a very big appetite. Day by day, he munches his way through fruit, treats and a surprisingly large amount of food. After feeling rather poorly, he rests inside a cosy cocoon. When he finally emerges, he has changed into a beautiful butterfly. Told through simple, repetitive text in English and Spanish, this colourful board book introduces young children to counting, days of the week, food and the life cycle of a butterfly.
