The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

The Very Hungry CaterpillarThe Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I love such kind of books which imparts big chunks of lessons through economical use of words.

The lesson I learned here is, never "feed" yourself with things that you are not suppose to "take in", for they will never satisfy you. Caterpillars are not suppose to eat oranges or apples or plums much less ice cream or Swiss cheese! So when he consumed each he still felt hungry and eventually felt sick. But when he ate a leaf, he felt better, became fat and in the end turned into a beautiful butterfly.

Feed on the things that you must; do what you were born to do and in the long run you will be what you were born to be.
