I Know An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie
by Allison Jackson
(Check Catalog)
A humorous story with a twist based on the popular "I Know An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly."
Children's Literature
This classic childhood song has been transformed into Thanksgiving hilarity. A little old lady gulps down a dry pie, swills cider which "rumbled and mumbled and grumbled" inside her. That is only the beginning. Hysterics and hysteria mount as Jackson's funny words and Schachner's silly illustrations show the old lady growing as big as a Thanksgiving Day float. They have taken a familiar favorite and given it new expression.
