A caterpillar’s accidental journey to strange places.

One day Mr. Caterpillar was taking a walk, bit by bit by bit by bit. He was having fun swaying to and fro on a leaf when, without warning, whoosh, a gust of wind blew him off.

Poor Mr. Caterpillar shut his eyes, expecting the worst, but suddenly found himself sitting on something firm. It was a man’s hat. The man went on his way until he met someone he knew. He tipped his hat in greeting and, whoosh, Mr. Caterpillar slipped off, right onto a lady’s shoulder.

So begins a grand and remarkable adventure in which Mr. Caterpillar takes a train ride and narrowly escapes a very threatening big black leather shoe. The book’s hero ultimately gets taken home and placed safely into a backyard tree. Adding to the story’s enjoyment are exuberant illustrations and the text’s bouncy cadence, which offers an irresistible invitation to be read aloud.
