Have you ever read the book, "There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Fly?" Well, this is another one just like it....set around Thanksgiving.

My favorite thing about this book is all of the new words that readers can be introduced to. Words like "rumbled" "murky" "pallid." See why children's books are amazing?

I did find the end page a bit weird (she became a balloon in a parade!). But overall, I smiled. I want to do this book in storytime soon!

This book is about a little old lady who at Thanksgiving decides to eat everything from pie to salad to pot. She ate so much that by the end of the book she became a float in the Thanksgiving day parade. I think this would be a fun and silly picture book to have in my class and to read during Thanksgiving time.

Between reading "adult" books, I am on a mission to read all the illustrated books I have throughout the house. This one made me smile. The concept of the old woman who lived in a shoe is changed in this book. She is moving out of the shoe and taking the children with her as she attempts to live with them in various other dwellings.

They moved to and old hat, shared with a cat who played the fiddle all night long. Dancing with a spoon caused mama and her babies to leave in fright.
Next move is to Little Jack Horner's warm woolen coat that caused an allergic reaction, so she moved her children inside a green sock that was hung from a clock. The mouse scared them away as the clock turned to one and they found a tub.
Not liking the crowded tub, they found a wall where all the king's horses and men and an egg exploded just then.

Next up: Mama moves her babies inside a tea cup, then a torn glove and misc. other abodes until she discovered the shoe was the best place after all.

Creative with illustrations that bring laughter, this is a delightful book to read to a youngster who loves to laugh. And, I recommend it for an adult who needs a laugh as well.
