Cooking with Eric Carle
20 Sep, 2025 - 23 Aug, 2026
Eric Carle鈥檚 career in book publishing began with commissions for Red Flannel Hash and Shoo-Fly Pie (published in 1965), a compilation of folk recipes from across the United States. When he switched over to his signature collage style, Carle continued to feature food in many of his books: Today is Monday concludes with a whole feast, and the board book My Very First Book of Food offers delightful small-scale snacks. From The Very Hungry Caterpillar to Walter the Baker, creatures and characters munch on all kinds of food in Eric Carle鈥檚 artwork.
