The Very Hungry Caterpillar

Ang matakaw na higad/uod (which one is better?)
Sa liwanag ng buwan, may isang maliit na itlog sa isang dahon.
Isang umaga, sumikat ang araw at pak!
Lumabas sa itlog ang isang napakaliit and napakagutom na higad.
Siya ay humanap ng pagkain.
Sa Lunes, kumain siya ng isang mansanas. Pero nagugutom pa siya.
Sa Martes, kumain siya ng dalawang peras. Pero nagugutom pa siya.
Sa Miyerkules, kumain siya ng tatlong sirwelas/lumboy. Pero nagugutom pa siya.
Sa Huwebes, kumain siya ng apat na presas. Pero nagugutom pa siya.
Sa Biyernes, kumain siya ng limang dalandan. Pero nagugutom pa siya.
Sa Sabado, kumain siya ng isang pirasong keyk na lasang tsokolate, isang sorbetes, isang atsara, isang salami, isang kendi, isang pirasong pastel, isang longganisa, isang cupcake, at isang pirasong pakwan.
Sa gabing iyon, sumakit ang kaniyang tiyan!
Kinabukasan, Linggo na ulit. Kumain ang higad ng isang berdeng dahon at nawala ang kaniyang sakit sa tiyan.
Hindi na siya gutom, at hindi na rin siya maliit. Siya ay naging isang malalaki at matabang higad.
Gumawa siya ng maliit na bahay at binalot niya sa kaniyang sarili. Ang tawag nito ay cocoon. Tumira siya sa loob ng cocoon niya na mahigit na dalwang linggo. Tapos, kinukot niya ung cocoon hanggang nagkabutas. Nilakihan niya ang butas hanggang siya ay nakalabas...
Ang galing! Siya ay naging isang magandang paruparo!

Title: The Very Hungry Caterpillar
In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf.
One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and pop!
Out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.
He started to look for some food.
On Monday he ate through one apple. But he was still hungry.
On Tuesday he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry.
On Wednesday he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry.
On Thursday he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry.
On Friday he ate through five oranges, but he was still hungry.
On Saturday he ate through one piece of chocolate cake, one ice-cream cone, one pickle, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake, and one slice of watermelon.
That night he had a stomach-ache!
The next day was Sunday again. The caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf, and after that he felt much better.
Now he wasn’t hungry anymore -- and he wasn’t a little caterpillar anymore. He was a big, fat caterpillar.
He built a small house, called a cocoon, around himself. He stayed inside for more than two weeks. Then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out….
He became a beautiful butterfly!
