Age: Toddler-Kindergarten
Animals: Crow, caterpillar

It was such fun to search for this cleverly disguised caterpillar! Fred loves to play games, especially Hide-and-Seek. His white, fluffy hair allow him to disappear into cotton balls, frothy milk, and sheep. Not only does he love to play hide-and-seek, but it's necessary for his survival, too. What a great way to tie in a science fact! (Although, I wish they had went so far as to use the word "camouflage.") When a big, black bird spies Fred on a green leaf, he tries to snatch him up for lunch but Fred scurries away, disguising himself as various white objects. We follow this cat-and-mouse game with repetitious phrases that give structure to the tale. The ending is absolutely perfect, too. I just love this one!
