Very Eric Carle

"The Very Hungry Caterpillar story is about hope. You, like the little caterpillar, will grow up, unfold your wings and fly off into the future." -Eric Carle


Colorful adventures in literacy and STEAM learning await in the special exhibition, Very Eric Carle: A Very Hungry, Quiet, Lonely, Clumsy, Busy Exhibit, making its Southeastern US debut at the Upcountry History Museum in Greenville, SC.


At this play-and-learn exhibit, visitors step into the pages of author and illustrator Eric Carle's colorful picture books and experience them as artist and reader, while discovering and playing with five special insects from his well-known children's books.
