  • Just right for little hands
Bright, colorful, and soft with just the right amount of noise and you can use the pieces to tell the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

  • Holds our 1 year kid’s attention!
The Very Hungry Caterpillar apple filled with all the delights of the story is adorable, soft, fun to take all the pieces out of, and very sturdy! Our one year old loves it. She is teething so she chews on the caterpillar, laughing as she does! It’s a big hit!

  • Fun in several ways
Seven month old enjoyed it right away. Liked the colors and crinkly sound of the fruits. Various textures were interesting for him. Also read the book which he is a tad too young for but think he will soon enjoy the two together. It is an old but very sweet story.

  • Does not come with the book
This is an adorable addition to the book. Ideally, the book should be included with this purchase, even if you charge a little more. It seems like good quality. Good for imaginative play and encourages reading the book.

  • Ten month old granddaughter lived it!
I love that the pieces fit inside the apple. Great for the developmental stage where they like to put things in and take them out. I bought the board book to go with it.
