The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle was an iconic book of my childhood, and it was one of the first books I purchased for my own children as well. I think it's a book that has timeless appeal for younger ones, and I purchased these wrapping paper sheets to use for covering some gifts for kids in my life back home. The pack has 9 sheets of wrapping paper with three different designs (you get three sheets of each), and they're nice and vivid with their colors. My favorite one is the top one which has bold prints of the fruits that the hungry caterpillar ate -- it's such an eye catching design!

The size of these wrapping paper sheets is only A4 size, which is fine for smaller gifts -- but if you're looking to wrap bigger-sized things then you'll need to tape sheets together or get a different style of wrap. Overall though I had a little dose of nostalgia with these sheets, and they fit the wrapping projects I needed them for. Even if you weren't using them for wrapping paper, they could come in handy for crafts -- e.g. if you were scrapbooking pages for your children, these would be fun for that. Keep an eye out for these at your local Can-Do if they sound fun or useful to you!
