There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed Some Leaves! Audiobook

" I used this book for fluency with my interevention student. I think it was great for fluency becasue the story was repetitive and had a good flow. This would help the child become more fluent by reading the same words over and over again. "

" This would be a great book to read during the fall! I would read it to first-third grade! Also I could make a big prop to go along with it! "

" This story is the fall spinoff to There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly. In this version, the Old Lady swallows leaves, a pumpkin, rope, hay, a shirt, pants, and a tall stick, and eventually throws up a scare crow. I never really like the endings when she regurgitates everything back up, but children always love that gross factor. This story is great when teaching sequential order in math, and you can also associate ordinal numbers to the objects once you have them in order. This book always make a wonderful large group lesson if you make an Old Lady prop where she can swallow the items! "

" I love this book. Good for sequencing and for fun. Has rhyming and and a great funny ending. "

" So, what I can say in this book's favor is that the kids LOVED IT! One of the kids brought it in to read during storytime and they loved the illustrations and laughed at almost every page, especially the ending. My problems with it are typical adult problems. I thought the rhymes were pretty contrived and wasn't crazy about the illustrations. Also, being an adult I'm not a huge fan of repetition but I knew going in that would be a part of the book and that isn't what made me not like it. I'm just sure there are better books like this out there, whether autumn stories or rhymey-wimey humor or swallowing-based stories. "
