As a teacher and mother today one of my all time wishes came true. I actually met Eric Carle. For those of you who don't live on planet Earth he is the author of wonderful children's book such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Steven, Nick, and I were there 1 hour and 30 minutes before the signing began. We were the fourth group in line and we saw him the second he came through the door. There we were sitting on the floor of Kohls department store waiting to see this special person. Nick was able to tell Eric Carle himself that his very favorite book was the The Very Hungry Caterpillar. I was so excited to see him that I actually couldn't breathe and my eyes were welling up with tears. I know that neither Nick of I will ever forget this special day.
