Early one morning a little spider begins to spin her web on a fencepost and she doesn't stop until it is finished . . . 

Alongside the visual excitement of Eric Carle's vibrant collages of familiar animals is the tactile experience of feeling the spider's web as it grows from a simple line into a complex and beautiful creation -a perfect story for reading aloud and sharing.

La Petite Souris Qui Cherche un Ami (Do You Want to Be My Friend?)

Les pucerons sont de très petits insectes. Ils sucent la sève des feuilles, qui se dessèchent et meurent. En mangeant les pucerons, les coccinelles rendent un fier service aux arbres, aux arbustes et à toutes les plantes qui portent des feuilles. Je leur dédie ce livre. Bravo à elles!

La Coccinelle mal lunée

What's Your Favourite Animal?

Il est six heures du matin et les rayons du soleil réveillent la coccinelle. Pas de chance, elle est de très mauvaise humeur ! Elle en veut même au monde entier et, heure par heure, elle provoque en duel chaque animal rencontré. Elle va de l’un à l’autre sans jamais l’affronter. D’un magistral coup de nageoire, la baleine lui fait entendre raison, et quand le soleil descend sur l’horizon, la coccinelle est de retour sur sa feuille, bien fatiguée et dotée d’une modestie toute fraîche… Un livre ritournelle pour s’amuser et apprendre à lire l’heure d’après le soleil.
