Every single book in the large There was an Old Lady series is perfect for your kindergartener！ Focus on this and the "Dear Dragon" books and your midget will be reading ahead of their classmates in no time！ Every single book in the large There was an Old Lady series is perfect for your kindergartener！ Focus on this and the "Dear Dragon" books and your midget will be reading ahead of their classmates in no time！ 。。。more

A great twist on the original story of an old lady who swallowed a fly， this book will leave your students laughing！ I would love to use this book in my future classroom when showing them traditional literature and its different versions of original stories。

This book is a classic but let's say that the classic books are starting to get old。 I love this book due to the kids always laughing at it but its so repetitive。 Theres a book for each season and for some reason， people still laugh at it each time like its something totally new！No harm though， great classic to read to future scholars！ This book is a classic but let's say that the classic books are starting to get old。 I love this book due to the kids always laughing at it but its so repetitive。 Theres a book for each season and for some reason， people still laugh at it each time like its something totally new！No harm though， great classic to read to future scholars！ 。。。more

I used to like this book when I was little， but as I grew older， I started seeing that these "There was an old lady who swallowed" books were following the same path as the book "There was an old lady who swallowed a fly。"By the way， I think younger kids will enjoy this book！ I used to like this book when I was little， but as I grew older， I started seeing that these "There was an old lady who swallowed" books were following the same path as the book "There was an old lady who swallowed a fly。"By the way， I think younger kids will enjoy this book！ 。。。more

The girls love these， I think they’re more three star reads， however they are easy reading practice for Kait and so we will get through all the editions they have at our library。

There was an old lady who swallowed a bat， is a part of a wonderful book series。 It is a good read and I love the word play demonstrated throughout it。 This Halloween themed story would be great for a read out loud to get it the Halloween Spirit！

Danielle ，

This series invented wordplay。 Still fun and definitely improves based on the enthusiasm of whoever's reading it。 This series invented wordplay。 Still fun and definitely improves based on the enthusiasm of whoever's reading it。 。。。more

For: nonsense/Halloween fans; readers looking for a book that builds off of itself。Possible red flags: silliness; gluttony。

Michele ，

Adorable twist on an old favorite！ Bats are very important in our family， as is Halloween， so this one was well-received by the grandkids！

Katelynne ，

IMO this series isn’t anything special， but it is a fun twist on the original song with the Halloween theme， and the kids love it。

Bella ，

I used this in a guided reading lesson plan and found that it was great for learning about rhyming words。 Plus it is very entertaining for the fall/ Halloween season and has awesome illustrations！

Jill Simmons ，

Our granddaughter， Mayzie， read this book to her grandparents during FT in the pandemic。 She swallowed a bat， owl， cat， ghost， goblin， bones， and wizard。 Sometimes she made up an object if she did not know the tasty treat！ Mayzie is 4 and likes this book because it follows a pattern。 Good reading！

Emily Costella ，

This is a super cute book and a nice easy read。 It is about an old lady who keeps swallowing animals。 She first begins by swallowing a fly， and then one animal after another is swallowed to catch the previous。 Each animal comes with a cute little rhyme as well。 The story is short enough to keep the children's attention， as well as the pictures will keep them engaged with the story as well。I think this book would be a good book to teach what a rhyming word is to students in first or second grade。 This is a super cute book and a nice easy read。 It is about an old lady who keeps swallowing animals。 She first begins by swallowing a fly， and then one animal after another is swallowed to catch the previous。 Each animal comes with a cute little rhyme as well。 The story is short enough to keep the children's attention， as well as the pictures will keep them engaged with the story as well。I think this book would be a good book to teach what a rhyming word is to students in first or second grade。 This story can be used to introduce what a rhyming word is and point out all of the words that sound the same。 This book can also be used as an assessment tool to help see if students are actually understanding what rhyming means and how it works。 This book provides many different sounds of rhyming and different patterns， so I think it could really help get the point across to children， as well as letting them have fun with a silly story。 I would give this story four stars because it is a great book and a fun read， but could get a little repetitive for the children if not read properly。 。。。more

Tori ，

I love it

Susan ，

Some of the pictures of the old lady swallowing things are wonderful indeed and very funny and characterful。 The book is completely preposterous。 At the beginning， that seems like a good thing and I got completely beguiled by how ridiculous it all was。 That gave it an energy。 But it has a disappointing ending。

Lynn Davidson ，

The old lady in this story didn't swallow a fly， but instead swallowed a bat， a goat， a ghost， and many strange things！ Great story for Hallowe'en。 The old lady in this story didn't swallow a fly， but instead swallowed a bat， a goat， a ghost， and many strange things！ Great story for Hallowe'en。 。。。more

I like when the old lady burped out everything

Carolyn Jeziorski ，

Ok read aloud for Halloween。 Kids thought it was funny。

Emma Pruett ，

Good book for Halloween。

Marcus ，

Love it__ the big part is realizing if the child you are reading this to has or hasn't heard the song or story "There was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly。" If not， make sure you read and sing them the original too， and find out which they enjoy more。 Love it__ the big part is realizing if the child you are reading this to has or hasn't heard the song or story "There was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly。" If not， make sure you read and sing them the original too， and find out which they enjoy more。 。。。more
