Here's the newest twist on the familiar tale of There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly.

There was a cold lady who swallowed some snow.

I don't know why she swallowed some snow.

Perhaps you know.

This time, the old lady is swallowing everything from snow to a pipe, some coal, a hat, and more! With rollicking, rhyming text and funny illustrations, this lively version will appeal to young readers with every turn of the page. And this time, there's a surprise at the end no reader will be able to guess!

Editor reviews

Skip Hinnant's buoyant, jovial performance of Lucille Colandro's There Was a Cold Lady Who Swallowed Some Snow propels this clever reimagining of the popular There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly.

This lighthearted tale will keep kids guessing as to why the Cold Lady decides to ingest an interesting assortment of wintry objects until the satisfying conclusion that ties everything together, and they will be entranced by Hinnant's animated delivery and the effortless flow of Colandro's whip-smart rhyming scheme.

"The lively background music and enthusiastic narration by actor Skip Hinnant keep the story skipping merrily along to an unsurprising but fun ending that has a useful curriculum application." ( School Library Journal)
