    Amongst the literary luminaries I have been blessed to befriend in this writerly life is Eric Carle. It almost feels silly to deliver an introduction for him—is unique style and unmistakable illustrations have become a cornerstone of children's literature.
    Eric's most famous creation, "The Very Hungry Caterpillar," is a true masterpiece and a cherished book in countless homes and classrooms around the world.

    I had the opportunity to sit down with Eric in 2012 in the grand hall of The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Museum in Amherst, MA. I recently came across this interview on a backup drive and wanted to share it with you. We lost Eric in 2021, but his work and genius will forever be with us.

    Let's get to know Eric Carle's origin story!
