The Very Hungry Caterpillar & Other Eric Carle Favorites

by Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia

Grades PK-2

Virtual!

LBC fan-favorite Mermaid Theatre appears virtually in one of their most popular stage shows! The timeless story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar‘s metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly, the fanciful account of Little Cloud’s travels through the sky, and the Mixed-Up Chameleon‘s discovery of his own unique nature are all brought to life with imaginative large-scale puppetry. Based on Eric Carle’s famous works, this performance looks like the pages right out of his books!
