Hello! My name is Jordan and I am doing a school project with the Birth-Kindergarten group of Western Carolina University on Author/Illustrators of picture books. One of my kids in this project had a question that they would like to have answered if possible... "Why are all of these books about animals? I like animals and that is why I really like Eric Carle!!" Thank you for all you do!
Happy Earth Day! Recently my baby and I (both of whom love, love, love, your books) were in the Florida keys. I know from your older blogposts that you spend part of your time there and thought of you. Hope you are having a wonderful year and had a greatbirthday. Thank you so much for your wonderful works.
I am doing a school project with my pre-k kids and they had a question for you! The question is, "Why are all of your books about animals?" Thanks for your feedback! It will help my project tremendously!
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.
