2009 sees the 40th Anniversary of Eric Carle's perennially popular children's book The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Translated into over 50 languages worldwide, it's said the book has sold 1 copy every minute since its publication in 1969, and it is now recognised as a children's classic.
This animated version of Eric Carle's most famous work - along with 4 more of his stories - was produced by The Illuminated Film Company (who also adapted Raymond Briggs' The Snowman for the screen) and faithfully utilises Carle's unmistakeable artwork to charming effect.
Housed in a specially commissioned slipcase to mark the Hungry Caterpillar's 40th Anniversary, this edition of the DVD is sure to delight fans of the book both young and old,
and will include an exclusive fold-out poster illustrating "The World of Eric Carle" plus a special Anniversary message from Eric himself."
