The Very Hungry Caterpillar : take two

First of all, very sorry I haven't written a blog for a while, hopefully this extra loooong one will make up for it.


Right. Look at the title of this post. What does it make you think of?




The caterpillar gets married and has three children?

His nephew comes to visit and they have a big buffet, stuff their faces and spend the rest of the day in the lavatory because of stomach ache?



Well, none of them. In fact, quite a lot less exciting! All that happens is that the caterpillar dies, many years go by, until some distant relative hatches out of his egg and finds himself in a plastic tub. He has brothers and sisters, but one by one they disappear. Finally, it is just him left, and what a fat caterpillar he is!

Here he is now!!

Every day, a strange man feeds him privet. He is a very silly man*, and it takes him a whole month to notice there is a big hedge right next door to him.

*The very silly man is actually my daddy.

Ok. That's the end of the story. THE END

No caterpillar falling off a cliff.

No super hero caterpillar saving the day.

I'm sorry if you were expecting an exciting action story. No, wait a minute. I'm going to show Miss Licchelli I've been listening in English today. The GENRE (new word) you would classify this story as would be Every Day Life. There you go, Miss Licchelli. I have been listening in class.

Goodbye. Miss Licchelli, if you are reading this, please comment and tomorow say 'Well Done'.
