The Very Impatient Caterpillar (a Very Impatient Caterpillar Book) - by Ross Burach (Hardcover)

The Very Impatient Caterpillar is a hilarious, tongue-in-cheek exploration of metamorphosis that will delight fans of Mo Willems's "Pigeon" series.

With chunky characters, livid green and thickly outlined for easy group sharing, and speech-bubble dialogue, this book is perfect for read-alouds with a histrionic bent.

The mixed-media digital artwork makes good use of the cartoon style to depict vibrantly colored caterpillars and the protagonist's overwrought emotions, particularly in the spot drawings showing the inside of the chrysalis.

This book provides real facts about how caterpillars transform into butterflies while also providing an abundance of funny details to discover in each scene.

The Very Impatient Caterpillar will make you flutter with glee and is a must-have for picture book collections.
