There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Cow

November 26, 2019 in Board Books, Children's Picture Books

I just love it when classic characters are upgraded and given fun new stories that we can continue to enjoy! The Old Lady is no different!

Ever since my oldest was a baby (she’s now 15), I have enjoyed reading these stories to her, of course at that time, the Old Lady had only swallowed a fly. Since then it’s been snow, turkeys, bats and now even a cow!

The latest book in this series is There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Cow by Lucille Colandro, Jared Lee (Illustrator).

Aaryn loves to hear me “sing” this particular story to her, and the best part is watching her get excited about what animal is going to end up on the next page!

If you are looking for a fun and engaging story, I highly recommend this one for your little one!

You can preorder the book here. This title will be released on April 7, 2020!

In the same feel-good style of I Got the Rhythm, t In the same feel-good style of I Got the Rhythm, this exuberant picture book explores the joys of the holiday season, once again illustrated by award-winning artist Frank Morrison.

It's the most wonderful time of the year, and a mother and daughter are enjoying the sights and sounds of the holiday season. The little girl hears sleigh bells ringing and carolers singing. She smells chestnuts roasting--CRUNCH! CRUNCH! CRUNCH!--and sees the flashing lights of the department store windows--BLING! BLING! BLING! She spreads the spirit of giving wherever she goes. And when she reaches Santa, she tells him her Christmas wish--for peace and love everywhere, all the days of the year.
————- If you’ve read Schofield-Morrison’s “I Got the Rhythm”, then you’ve meet the vibrant young girl who, like most children, wakes up brimming with Christmas spirit. As she and her mother venture into the snowy streets of their diverse city neighborhood, the girl who admires a festive department store window, let’s us know how she “sparkled in the spirit of the lights.” She even brings cheer to a grumpy Santa: “I spread the spirit with my smile.” Morrison’s artwork provide the perfect backdrop to capture the crackling energy of a city preparing for Christmas. .
