The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything Audiobook

" My son got this as a Halloween gift from preschool. It's written in a way that makes it easy for kids to read along and anticipate what the next lines will be. A fun seasonal read aloud. "

" This book was cute for waht it was about. Obviously this book is meant for a younger reader but I figured I would try it out. I could tell just how young kids would enjoy this book, as it has the small words to build on as the story moves on. Children tend to enjoy these books more because they are able to keep up with the story easier. quick little read but great for kids. "

" I love to read this out loud to my students because tehy get so excited to do the clomp, clomp, smack, smack as I am reading it. This would be a great flannel board story as well as building teh scarecrow as you read the story. "

" As an old woman is walking through the woods she begins hearing noises: the stomp of boots, the swish of a shirt. She turns to find the clothing items following her on her way home, but not matter what she turns to find none of it scares her. Finally, when they all knock on her door late at night she thinks of the perfect job that will allow them to scare. My professor used this one as a read aloud in our Early Childhood Materials class and it was a great one. It's easy to make it interactive by stomping, swishing, and booing along. The pictures are a little small and the illustrations are dated, but it's still a fun way to read about Halloween. If you're reading to a group, it would probably work best with a smaller group due to the small size. This is also a good one to read if you have anyone who objects to Halloween since that word is never used in the book. "

" Great book for Halloween time - or anytime! "

" Great for Halloween and reading aloud. Dad read it to Jack this morning, and a good time was had by all. Jack's really enjoyed the repetitive verbs and onomatopoeia. "

" Everyone loves this book. "

" This book would be good to have students predict what she will she when she answers the door. This book is also really fun to have students do the movements to the different sounds that she hears. "

" Very interactive. I would use this as a seasonal book to allow children out of their seats and get them moving around in a fun way. "

" I read this one all the time to my kiddos. I love it. "

" Cute Halloween book, but perhaps too scary for a small child. "

" Different parts of a scarecrow try to scare the old lady, but she's not afraid of them. This book is a great Halloween book. It's also great for interacting with students, because you can have student do the movements that the different items do. "

" I think I have read this book every year since 1991. One of my favorite Halloween books. "

" My kids read me this book at night. Xander does the reading and Hannah does all the scary sounds. It's my favorite :) "

" loved it. and a great spooky story to tell to little ones on a dark fall night leading up to halloween. it is a little scary and then ends happy. "

" Fun read aloud. "

" This book is a great book to teach students about sequencing and repetition. The students can sound out the words along with the reading. I love the ending part of the story that all things that follows the old lady ends up with a scarecrow. "

" My kids loved this book! I made the silly noises that my kids loved so much. Excellent story. "

" Fun ending, good repetitive aspect. "

" Reading this to Robby and Emma was very entertaining! They loved the way they could interact with the storyline. "

" This is a must for you Halloween collection! "

" totally still stuck in my head...clomp clomp..wiggle...wiggle. "

" This is an excellent story to read around Halloween. Movement can be incorporated into the read aloud of this suspenseful story. It is very repetitive so young children will start reading along with you during this read aloud. "

" Fun activities could be done with this to teaching fluency, sequencing and predicting. Activity where everyone gets up and does the motions of the characters is a great way to get children active. "

" So much fun - Madelyn quickly memorized the sound pattern! "

" Perfect for read-alouds. The kids made the sounds along with me for each part of the scarecrow. "

" I forgot about this one. It's cute, the kids really enjoyed it. "

" This was a really fun book to read because it is predictable and can be interactive. The students really enjoyed reading it. We talked about things we were scared of afterwards and then students wrote about something they are scared of. "
