The World of Eric Carle

Eric Carle’s art is distinctive and instantly recognizable. Artwork is created in collage technique, using hand-painted papers, which he cuts and layers to form bright and cheerful images. Many of books have an added dimension—die-cut pages, twinkling lights as in The Very lonely firefly, even the lifelike sound of a cricket’s song as in The very quiet cricket. A book you can play with and a toy you can read.
