About this listen

Introduce young listeners to poetry with The Very Hungry Caterpillar in the first-ever collection of original poems from the World of Eric Carle!

Caterpillar’s Wish
I made a little wish
on the first star in the sky.
I wished that I could turn into—
a big blue butterfly!

This tender collection of first poems invites young listeners into the world of poetry. Featuring Eric Carle’s beloved artwork and twelve original poems by award-winning poet Charles Ghigna (Father Goose), this book is perfect for little ones and their families to enjoy together.
