The Spanish translation of The Very Hungry Caterpillar (Philomel) preserves the original simplicity and the appealing use of repetition and rhythm. The exquisite collage illustrations will delight children as a hungry caterpillar happily eats his way through pages of fabulous food and emerges a brilliantly colored butterfly. - Horn Book
Born in the United States, Eric Carle was taken as a six-year-old child by his parents back to their native country, Germany. Later, he studied at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste (Academy of Applied Arts) in Stuttgart, and returned to New York in his early twenties as a graphic designer and artist. His many picture books are now known and loved by children around the world.
In 2002, Eric and his late wife, Barbara, opened The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, in Amherst, Massachusetts, where the works of distinguished picture book artists, nationally and internationally acclaimed, are exhibited in three spacious galleries.
