One Sunday morning (actually, it was Tuesday evening) the warm sun came up and - pop! - out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.
She started to look for some food.
On Monday she ate through one apple,
but she was still hungry.
On Tuesday she ate through two pears,
but she was still hungry.
On Wednesday she ate through three plums,
but she was still hungry.
On Thursday she ate through four strawberries,
but she was still hungry.
On Friday she ate through five oranges,
but she was still hungry.
On Saturday she ate through one piece of chocolate cake, one ice cream cone, one pickle, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake, and one slice of watermelon.
Now she wasn't hungry any more -- and she wasn't a little caterpillar anymore.
She was a beautiful butterfly!
Happy 1st Birthday!
