The Wonderful World of Eric Carle: Timeless Stories for Little Readers
Few children's authors have created a world quite as recognisable and beloved as Eric Carle. With his distinctive collage-style illustrations, bright colours and simple, engaging stories, Carle's books have become treasured favourites for generations of young readers.
From the much-loved The Very Hungry Caterpillar to colourful animal adventures and interactive learning books, the Eric Carle collection at Lowplex Books brings together some of his most memorable stories and characters.
Meet The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Of course, no Eric Carle collection would be complete without The Very Hungry Caterpillar. First published in 1969, the story of a tiny caterpillar's journey through a week of delicious discoveries has become a classic of children's literature.
Its simple storytelling, bold artwork and interactive format make it a wonderful introduction to books for little ones. Children can follow the caterpillar as he eats his way through different foods before discovering the transformation that awaits at the end.
Lowplex Books currently has several editions and formats available, including the classic story, board book editions and larger formats.
Discover More of Eric Carle's Animal World
While the Very Hungry Caterpillar may be his most famous creation, Eric Carle's wonderful world extends far beyond one little caterpillar.
Readers can discover colourful animals and playful stories across titles such as Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? and Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See?, created with Bill Martin Jr and illustrated by Carle.
There are also collection sets and little libraries that make it easy to introduce young readers to several of Carle's stories at once. The World of Eric Carle: Big Box of Little Books, for example, contains nine chunky board books featuring a variety of animals, with a fun Very Hungry Caterpillar puzzle surprise.
