In a twist on the classic tale of "There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly," a ravenous old lady swallows a bell, some bows, gifts, a sack, a sleigh, and finally some reindeer.

There was an old lady who's ready for school! That lovely old lady has returned just in time for the first day of school. Now she's swallowing items to make the very best of her first day back. And just in time for the bus. Full color.

The old lady is at it again, and this time she's swallowing a spoon... while humming a tune! You won't believe why this old lady swallowed a spoon, a bowl, some flour, a pan, and more! Read this book and find out why!

"In this book, young children are introduced to a ravenous monster that eats everything in its path. Apples, leaves, trees, and even cows don't stand a chance as he ploughs his way through the woods satisfying his enormous appetite. Who will his next victim be? Be careful! His favourite dish is little children! But don't worry. The surprise ending will make children sigh with relief--and laugh out loud" --Publisher description.

In this adaptation of the traditional nursery rhyme, an astronaut swallows the Moon and other celestial objects, while two children ask questions about the Solar System and outer space.
