Everyone always assumes I love children. I do, but I don't want to be surrounded by them. I'm about average when it comes to children: I like some, and some I don't like.
-Eric Carle, New York Times, April 14, 1994
I make things which are half book, half toy, things a child can touch and feel as well as look at.
-Eric Carle
Eric Carle is not only an original artist, he is also deeply interested in the emotional, aesthetic, and intellectual growth of childrenb in stimulating their natural creativity and their joy in learning.
-Ann K. Beneduce
