Summary: A real attention grabber
Comment: This book is a must have for families with young children. First, it has wonderfully original illustrations. You can see how the old lady and the creatures in her stomach look after each new meal. The colors are bright. There are many details so that new things are discovered each time the book is read.
Secondly, the story is just disgusting and scary enough to catch the attention of the most distracted child. The idea of a lady swallowing bugs and animals is fascinating. The fact that she dies is also very interesting - but not depressing - to kids.
Highly recommended!

Summary: There was an old Lady who Swallowed a Fly
Comment: There was an old Lady who Swallowed a Fly by Simms Taback is an excellent book. It expands the imagination of children so they can enhance their learning skills. Given the ability to see directly into the old lady's stomach will attract their small little eyes. Vibrant colors stand out against the black back round to allow each and every swallowed animal to appear more important. Reading There was an old Lady who Swallowed a Fly would create a wonderful memory and a child who loves to read because of the rhyming and well-written vocabulary. Although children will love to read it, age six is a reasonable age for them to handle the book in their own tiny hands. However, there is no child too you to read and enjoy this book.

Summary: Fun to Read
Comment: I don't know of many stories that are more fun to read. My daughter loves the animals and the bright pictures. The words will keep her attention through about half the book usually. She is still young though and some of the pages towards the end get a little long. The book is probably better suited for children 2 and older.
