He is just 15 months now, but I often find him sitting by himself turning the pages and looking at the book. It is amazing how the author has packed in so much in such a simple story! I recommend it to all my mommy friends.Reema Sahayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11287414476458432950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-5668309473746573532007-09-05T17:09:00.000-07:002007-09-05T17:09:00.000-07:00I have been reading this book to my now 2 year 3 m...I have been reading this book to my now 2 year 3 month old Aniketh since he was a few months old. It is his favourite. This book along with Where is Spot have been instrumental in sprking his interest in books. He 'reads' at least 3-5 books everyday. He can now recite the whole story of the caterpillar! In addition to what you have mentioned, I liked the fact that the book introduces the terms of the life cycle as they are... it has not been dumbed down. I would rate this as the best book ever for toddlers.shansathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088488657413362615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-16943750248448318242006-12-27T11:50:00.000-08:002006-12-27T11:50:00.000-08:00you know they have game of this book too..

I looked up HTML coding, and tried using PARA p tag at the beginning at the end of each para, and it does the spacing properly. Will email you the tags - this comment box is not letting me use type up the p tags...Funny...<br /><br />May be you guys could try that in your html part of the posting. But, the google docs that you've suggested does sound like an easier option..Will give it a try and see.<br /><br />Tharini - I need to get back to you on the banner and other stuff. Will do so tonight! Apologies for my tardiness..So many things to do, so little time...<br /><br />Will get back to you guys on other stuff. I will email both of you from Saffrontree's account regarding blog related news/updaes/forwards. Hope that's ok. <br /><br />So fortunate to team up with you guys! <br /><br />PrabaPraba Ramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12124515962155387444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-36544524971552678932006-12-01T08:10:00.000-08:002006-12-01T08:10:00.000-08:00Hey Meera...

Somehow, beta blogger won't let me space my paras also when I posted. I happened to chance upo Google Docs, and used that to compose and then publish directly to the blog. You could give that a try!Tharinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09553983156612215920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-24137219740716661942006-12-01T00:02:00.000-08:002006-12-01T00:02:00.000-08:00Chanced by this blog- I love reading to my kid -An...Chanced by this blog- I love reading to my kid -Anush- she says" Do Dook" as and when she wants to be read to<br /><br />It has been usually Winnie the Pooh tales/ Karadi Tales/ Various pic books so far<br /><br />will be back for gyaanArtnavyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15060564468230843716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-82649324418973608592006-11-30T07:45:00.000-08:002006-11-30T07:45:00.000-08:00Oh - the pleasures of reading the hungry caterpill...Oh - the pleasures of reading the hungry caterpillar and other Eric Carle's books so beautifully brought out in your write-up...I am craving to read one of his books to Kirthana right away...We have a small collection in our family - grouchy ladybug, mixed-up chameleon, the tiny seed, brown bear, brown bear, and of course, our little darling - the very hungry caterpillar!
