About Me
- Eric Carle
- The Very Hungry Caterpillar is one of the more than 70 picture books that I have written and/or illustrated. I was born in the U.S. and was raised in Germany. My background is in graphic design but since the late 1960's when I illustrated Bill Martin Jr's Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? I have been creating books for children. My illustrations are collages made with my own hand-painted tissue papers, a technique many children have replicated and enjoyed in their classrooms and at home. With my late wife Barbara, I am also the cofounder of The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, MA.
Happy Hearts Day, Mr Carle!

I am so excited to share with you that our school has decided to your books as our theme for March is Reading Month. Each classroom will decorate their doors in your honor. The kids will read books to try to surpass last years total of 3,000 books read in one month. They will watch this challenge grow by adding a circle to a caterpillar head for every 5 books read. I would love to share the photos with you when we get near the end of the month.
