Summary

More
The birds are singing in the trees, but this nutty old lady isn't listening to them or enjoying the lovely spring day—she's busy gobbling up everything in sight! She devours flowers, butterflies, and even birds. A nervous black dog, carefully keeping his distance, is stunned when she adds gold coins and a fiddle to her meal. What could she be up to? When she starts dancing a jig with a leprechaun, her strange meal produces a perfectly delightful surprise ending for this St. Patrick's Day rhyme.

Infectiously fun, this is a great choice for seasonal read-alouds…or anytime readers want to laugh!

About this Series

Whether this wacky old lady is eating bats (for Halloween), leaves (in fall), or clovers (for St. Patrick's Day), she's sharing what's special about each holiday or tradition in a fun, fresh way. With just enough suspense, the catchy rhymes in these picture books encourage readers to guess their way toward a satisfying ending. Plus, as the old lady gobbles and gobbles and gobbles, new readers get to experience rhyme, repetition, cause and effect, and sequencing—which can boost fluency and vocabulary skills. No wonder so many kids have an enormous appetite for books starring this lovable lady!
