USPS commerative stamps

The U.S. Postal Service commemorates favorite childrens’ book animals this month, featuring one of the Wild Things (Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak, 1963), Curious George (Curious George Flies A Kite by Margret and H.A. Rey, 1958), Wilbur (Charlotte’s Web by E.B. White, 1952), Frederick (Frederick by Leo Lionni, 1967), Olivia (Olivia by Ian Falconer, 2000), the Very Hungry Caterpillar (The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, 1969 and 1987), Maisy (Maisy’s ABC by Lucy Cousins, 1994 in the U.K. and 1995 in the U.S.), and the Fox in Socks (Fox in Socks by Dr. Seuss, 1965).

I think I just squeed my pants.

    The people who have the rights to Noddy I think also now own the rights to “The Very Hungry Caterpillar”.
