{My thoughts} – This book is a lot fun. I happen to enjoy all the books that are similar to this by Lucille Colandro. She has a nice interesting imagination when it comes to the many different things the Old Lady is able to swallow and why she swallows so many things.

I read through this book with my two year old and she kept pointing at objects on the pages. It’s her way of saying tell me what this and that is. She always has a smile on her face when she is being read to. She also seems to have an interest in these particular books.

I really liked how this particular book was put together. It’s not only a silly rhyme but it also helps to teach children about space. I like how in the back of the book there is more information for the child as they get older if they have more of in interest in it’s subject matter. This was a fun book to read and I look forward to reading more books in the series in the future. ( )

In this adaptation of the traditional nursery rhyme, an astronaut swallows the moon and other celestial objects, while two children ask questions about the solar system and outer space.
