@anish, hope I'm not too late again. Assuming the books are tightly packed in the shelf and he was only able to wiggle through (not eat) to the cover of the first book then he ate through 14 cms of the books. The worm couldn't wiggle through the covers in the middle so he has to eath through them. He only left the front cover of the first volume and the back cover of the 4th volume.

Edit: @elrond, they're still making the baby at the moment so the father is very close by. (probably on top or below the mom )

hmmm.. I think there need to be a bit of clarification the books are on a bookshelf beside each other quite close, that is no measurable space in between but not very tightly packed meaning if the worm wants he can wiggle in an out as said in the riddle. So I am afraid your answer of 14 cm is wrong as well.

This is a very straight forward riddle the only thing is you have to visualise the whole scenario to answer this riddle.

I think the worm eats the last volumes cover and goes backwards but the riddle says starts at Page 1 V3 and eats through to.

So that cant be it.
