- Description
The Very Hungry Caterpillar has famously delighted generations of youngsters worldwide since going on sale in 1969, so it was inevitable that Eric Carle's marvelous picture-books would one day be brought to life through the magic of animation. For the first time on DVD, here are 5 of Carle's captivating tales based faithfully on his original illustrations.
Over the course of a week, The Very Hungry Caterpillar eats his was through increasing quantities of food before becoming quite ill... and then something magical happens; in Papa, Please Get the Moon For Me, Monica asks her father if she can hold the moon and he tries to grant her wish; next The Very Quiet Cricket wants to say "hello" but he can't - not until he meets another cricket anyway. The Mixed Up Chameleon visits a zoo and envies the traits and qualities of the animals he sees there; and finally in I See a Song, a violinist creates amazing abstract images as he plays, before ultimately filling the world with colour.
Narrated by Juliet Stevenson & Roger McGough.
