About this book.

3
00:00:08,570 --> 00:00:11,849
One Sunday morning, the warm sun came up and pop!

4
00:00:12,390 --> 00:00:15,769
Out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.

5
00:00:16,350 --> 00:00:20,170
So, begins the journey of Eric Caron's most famous character,

6
00:00:20,710 --> 00:00:22,589
from little egg to beautiful butterfly.

7
00:00:23,949 --> 00:00:27,410
In the light of the moon, a little egg lay on a leaf.

8
00:00:27,410 --> 00:00:36,490
One Sunday morning, the grandson came up and popped.

9
00:00:36,490 --> 00:00:41,750
Out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.

10
00:00:41,750 --> 00:00:46,090
He started to look for some food.

11
00:00:46,090 --> 00:00:51,609
On Monday he ate through one apple, but he was still hungry.

12
00:00:51,609 --> 00:00:56,649
On Tuesday he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry.

13
00:00:56,649 --> 00:01:00,850
On Wednesday, he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry.

14
00:01:01,570 --> 00:01:06,409
On Thursday, he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry.

15
00:01:07,310 --> 00:01:12,390
And on Friday, he ate through five oranges, but he was still hungry.

16
00:01:12,989 --> 00:01:20,870
On Saturday, he threw one piece of chocolate cake, one cream cone, one pickle, one slice of sweet cheese,

17
00:01:20,870 --> 00:01:28,870
One slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake and one slice of watermelon.

18
00:01:29,290 --> 00:01:30,810
That night he had a stomachache.

19
00:01:33,650 --> 00:01:36,030
The next day was Sunday again.

20
00:01:36,430 --> 00:01:41,390
The caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf and after that he felt much better.

21
00:01:42,329 --> 00:01:47,150
Now he wasn't hungry anymore and he wasn't a little caterpillar anymore.

22
00:01:47,450 --> 00:01:49,549
He was a big fat caterpillar.

23
00:01:50,870 --> 00:02:06,209
He built a small house called a cocoon around himself. He stayed inside for more than two weeks. Then he nipped a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out and he was a beautiful butterfly.
