A fresh rendition of a classic children's tune followed by a buffet of silly sing-along songs. Get to know a quirky old lady who swallows a heap of animals--from a dog, cat, bird and spider to that infamous little fly. The children's classic, for which singer-songwriter Alan Mills is best known, sets the table for more timeless folk tunes, written over 50 years ago. Tongue-in-cheek and smart at heart, this buffet of singalong alphabet, counting and rhyming songs is jaw-droppingly silly as it is devourable. The accompanying recordings can be accessed with a QR printed in the book.
