The Caldecott Honor winning classic about a brave and clever little worm from beloved picture book creator Leo Lionni. A small green inchworm is proud of his skill at measuring anything—a robin’s tail, a flamingo’s neck, a toucan’s beak. Then one day a nightingale threatens to eat him if he cannot measure his song. Children will enjoy the clever inchworm’s solution and delight in finding the tiny hero on every page. Every inch the classic, this was the first of Lionni’s books to win the Caldecott Honor. Review: Inch by Inch Book - Great book for young children L.L. Review: Cute lesson - Super cute story about how to use what you have to your advantage :) also I love the artwork.

Leo Lionni is a fantastic children's story teller
Leo Lionni is a fantastic children's story teller. this book is no exception. the little worm loves measuring everything...and is very sly when it comes to measuring a surprise item for the nightingale... so that the nightingale doesn't gobble him up! illustrations are beautiful and the story is wonderful as it begins introducing and teaching little ones about rulers and measuring. i used this book at a book themed baby shower...and put it along side the tape measure that we used to measure mommy to be's tummy. the correct guesser went home with a gift...and the mommy to be went home with the book for baby.

the sweetest children's book
I had never read this book before purchasing it for my son, and we've found it to be fun, wonderfully illustrated, and clever. Easily one of my favorite books to read to him and definitely worth the purchase.

CUTE BOOK
My grandson was required to read this book and do an assessment on the contents. The book has more illustrations than printed words but has a cute theme. He loved reading it.

Simple text, great story
This is one of my favorite Leo Lionni titles! The artwork is gorgeous, simple, and clear. The book tells the story of an inchworm who manages to escape being eaten with his special ability to measure. This is an engaging read for kids ages 2-6 and a great title to pique STEM interest (measurement as well as insects).

Una joya para chicos y grandes
Como todos los de Leo Leonni un diez en ilustración, concepto y texto. Una joya que con cuarto palabras muy armoniosamente dispuestas transmite una pequeña gran idea sin que lo parezca.

小学校で読みました
小学校で、ボランティアで読み聞かせをしています。簡単な内容の英語の本を探していました。英文を日本語で解説しながら読みます。今回、小学３年生の２クラスで読み聞かせましたが、どちらのクラスでも、好評でした。 お話は、ちょうど1inchの長さのしゃくとり虫が、いろいろな鳥の羽やくちばしの長さを測り、最後の鳥に食べられそうになるのですが、みごと逃げ切るという内容です。いろんな鳥が出てきますので、日本語では？英語では？と確認するだけでもおもしろいです。英語が難しいと思う人でも、きれいな絵本ですので、見るだけでも楽しめると思います。
