Fantastic!
I picked this book up for my nephew's birthday because I remember loving the story of the little old lady who swallowed a fly when i was a kid. I was in a hurry at the store, so I just grabbed it off the shelf and went on my way.

When I got it home and finally had time to look through the book, I was amazed at how fantastic the illustrations are! I read the book and realized all over again what a great story this is. I know my nephew will love it too.

An Old Favorite
My aunt used to sing this to me when I was little. I always got such a kick out of the song. Now I enjoy sharing it with my son.

Worth Every Penny...
An enjoyable book to read and enjoy with your child. I don't think you can get through this book without singing the words and lots of giggles.
