The Very Hungry Caterpillar Story and Activity

In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf. One Sunday morning, the warm sun comes up and – pop! Out of the egg comes a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.

He started looking for some food.

On Monday, he ate through one apple, but he was still hungry.

On Tuesday, he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry.

On Wednesday, he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry.

On Thursday, he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry.

On Friday, he ate through five oranges, but he was still hungry.

On Saturday, he ate through …

• one piece of chocolate cake
• one ice cream cone
• one pickle
• one slice of Swiss cheese
• one slice of salami
• one lollipop
• one piece of cherry-pie
• one sausage
• one cupcake
• and one slice of watermelon

That night he had a stomachache!

The next day was Sunday again.  The caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf, and after that he felt much better.  Now he wasn’t hungry anymore and he wasn’t a little caterpillar

anymore.  He was a big, fat caterpillar.  He built a small house, called a cocoon, around himself. He stayed inside for more than two weeks.  Then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out ...he was a beautiful butterfly!
