The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Other Stories is a compilation of five of Eric Carle’s most popular stories.

The Very Quiet Cricket is about a cricket who finally finds his voice and The Mixed-Up Chameleon learns an important lesson about being himself. Finally, I See A Song invites audiences on a magical musical journey. But can you really see a song?
