Up?Carle shares a bit of himself in this collection of vignettes.

For more than 25
years Eric Carle''s crickets, spiders, and caterpillars have
delighted young readers across the world. Now for the first time
the creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar gives readers a peek
into his own, real-life universe of animals and insects, and
family, as he tells the stories of his life.All true, Eric Carle
sets his stories down, not as they happened, but as they came to
him. We meet him as a young boy in America and Germany, fooling his
Oma by "hypnotizing" her chickens; wandering with his naturalist
father, looking for lizards; making a box-home for the fascinating

these warm and intimate stories present Eric Carle''s vast
readership with an enchanting glimpse of the man behind his
universally-loved books.
