The perfect introduction to growing and life cycles for young children.
A caterpillar hatches from a tiny white egg and munches through the leaves of its bean plant home. It gets bigger and bigger – but what will it turn into next? This beautifully illustrated picture book from award-winning author Martin Jenkins and up-and-coming artist Hannah Tolson is the fourth book in Walker's Science Storybook series, and is the perfect introduction to growing and life cycles for young children.
This is Book 25 in the Science Storybooks Series. See all Science Storybooks books here.
