My kids loved listening to the story about this caterpillar. Brilliant short story, with a message of self belief and the fact that helping others can ultimately help you:)

The narrator did a great job!! The young children will love this little heart warmer!!

After the caterpillar eats way too much and gains weight he is feeling lonely and unwanted and it is then when I say it runs across him on top of a roof and just in time because Santa needs help and he is the perfect shape to go down the chimney. This is such a sweet Christmas story with a great message no matter what you say but size or creed or species someone always need you in this case the caterpillar is needed by Santa and I thought it was one of the sweetest books I’ve ever read. My daughter after reading this book my daughter wanted to know if a caterpillar is fat would that make it a big butterfly? We’re still trying to figure that out but I’ve learned so much about caterpillars I’m so glad we read this book. I highly recommend it she is four years old and it was perfect for her. I don’t want to forget to say that the narrator did an awesome awesome job!

What a precious audiobook so sweet

Thoroughly enjoyed this story. My grandson will enjoy this as he loves Christmas and butterflies, so a real winner. Loved the story being read in a Welsh accent with a lovely calm tone.

Heartwarming

Great for young children, read very well in a fun way by the narrater. It is very short but as its aimed at very young children they definitely won't get board by this fun tale about santa-claus.
