I didn't understand from the description that this coloring book is literally the actual story book but with no color. Even the pages that are cut short in the book (the fruit that the caterpillar eats through) are also cut short in this coloring book. I was looking for a coloring book where I could photocopy the pages so that the various children at my party could color and this worked great. I kept the original book for my own daughter to color someday when she is older. Despite that I was told it would take 4-6 weeks for delivery, it arrived in less than 10 days. This book would make a great gift and I would definitely order again.
Not especially thrilled with the he layout of the book, which was just like the Eric Carle book, on little pages that got bigger as the caterpillar got bigger. I was hoping for full coloring pages on each of the stages of the caterpillar turning to a butterfly for my little one to color.
My nephew loves the Very Hungry Caterpillar. He also loves coloring books. So when I saw this book combining the two, it was a no-brainer.The pages in this book are fairly thick. While my nephew colors with crayons, I do not think marker would bleed through from one page to the next. The images to color are far enough from the spine of the book to make removing the pages (to hang on the fridge) a simple task for mom or dad.
This is a really cool book that is the "hungry caterpiller" story - but allows a child to color their own book. Gave this along with the Lacing Carts to our 3-1/2 yr old granddaughter. Loves the book ... not sure she is old enough to get the full impact of the ability to color her own book. Would buy this product again. Very good quality.
So cute! My kiddo loved it, and I bought another one I found at a store to give to a future birthday kid. I love that this has the story as well, so the kids can essentially color their own story book. I think when my kid is older, I'll encourage her to go back and color it more completely (she was more of a scribble-colorer when she received this).
This is the exact same book as the very hungry caterpillar (words and all) only in an uncolored version. The pages are thick and the cover is nice. There is a place to sign your name at the end when you have completed your masterpiece. It is very nice. It has the short pages in the middle with the holes just like the original book. I love it. Very well done. It was purchased for a 2 year old who loves the book...however this could be a nice keepsake if done with the intention of artistry so we will save it until she is a bit older.
My youngest daughter received this for Valentine's Day and has spent a great deal of time making this book beautiful. This is perfect for kids who have read and loved Carle's Very Hungry Caterpillar and want to color in the illustrations -making the book their own. The cover even has a space for the child to add their name as the illustrator. This was a great gift. I plan on keeping one on hand for those occasions when you need a gift to give quickly.
Great coloring book. My daughter loved coloring this after reading the books for so long. I'll likely have to buy many more of these. What makes this book great is it's put together just like the book.
