1: You'd do better to buy a Very Hungry Caterpillar
This book is eligible for Amazon's 4-for-3 promotion, so you are not risking a lot of money should you buy this book.
It isn't one of our favorites from Eric Carle. For our bedtime reading collection, we prefer these Carle books instead:
The Very Hungry Caterpillar
The Mixed-Up Chameleon
Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?

2: There is a great lesson here!
I love Eric Carle! His illustrations are wonderful and there is always a math or science lesson included in the text. This one helps children learn to tell time and explains how ladybugs are helpful to plants. I was shocked when I read some of the reviews that criticized this book. I am the mother of five and I know that you can't protect them forever. Don't get upset about the behavior of the ladybug; use it as an example. Your children WILL encounter bullies like this ladybug. Explain this to them along with how you think they should handle the situation. It is also an example of how you do NOT want your own children to behave, even if they might be feeling grouchy. We all have bad days, but being mean to others is not the way to handle those days. In the end, the ladybug also realizes this. In my opinion, allowing them to enjoy this book will help your children, not hurt them.

3: Grouchy Ladybug
My granddaughter "fell in love" with this book and she "had" to have a copy and where else but Amazon? Wonderful service every time I have done business with Amazon. Products top drawer. Thank you all so much.

4: Good Book
This is one of my all time favorites by Eric Carle. We even made it into a puppet show! Fun

5: Hey, You, Wanna Fight?
This book is going to have to quietly disappear. I can't get my 2 year old and 5 year old to stop saying the infamous phrase that is repeated throughout the book, "Hey, you, wanna fight?". I'm anticipating my 5 year old's teacher telling me any day now that he's saying this at school! Eric Carle is an all time great illustrator but clearly doesn't understand the effect of negative repetition on children.
