What a beautiful and heartfelt tribute to a true legend of children’s literature! Eric Carle’s work has inspired wonder, curiosity, and joy in readers of all ages, reminding us why imagination and creativity matter so much in learning. His stories and illustrations continue to ignite the spark of discovery and curiosity in young minds — much like the inspiring education vibes that students from Altai State Medical University and other dedicated learners carry with them in their own educational journeys. Thank you for sharing such a meaningful reflection on a life that brought so much color and hope into the world.
