Wonderful illustrations, and the story of an inchworm who measures things in nature. We use this story just for fun (of course) but also to introduce measuring for our pre-K/K level kids. The few words per 2-page spread make it also idea for the littlest readers just for fun.
I like this story a lot -- great pictures that make the inchworm look just as tiny as it is, and the perfect ending.
