This summer you can help Eric Carle celebrate his 80th birthday at the Eric Carle Museum in nearby Amherst, Massachusetts. You can see giant cake cut-outs and meet Eric Carle on August 23, 2009 at the museum. Visit the museum's website for more information.
Also, be sure to prepare for the celebration -- summer reading style -- by reading some of Mr. Carle's great books, such as Panda Bear, Panda Bear, What Do you See?, The Grouchy Ladybug, Little Cloud, Today is Monday, The Very Quiet Cricket, and many more!
