Eric Carle (1929-2021) was an American designer, illustrator, and writer of children’s books, best known for his brilliantly illustrated and innovatively designed picture books for very young children. His most famous book, «The Very Hungry Caterpillar,» has been translated into more than 65 languages and sold over 50 million copies, making it one of the most beloved children’s books of all time. The style is recognizably illustrative and intended for young kids, incorporating a caterpillar whenever possible. It’s not very strong, but it works quite well with some of the prompts! The Midlibrary score is 6/9.
