61wvXmvnhVL._SL500_AA300_

There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Fly
Retold by Sally Hopgood
Illustrated by Marina Le Ray

Publication date: 2010
Publisher: Tide Mill Press
ISBN: 978-1-74248-176-0

Summary/Back cover:
Join the old lady as she swallows every animal in sight!
Children will love this classic comic song with a modern twist and a surprise ending.
Eight humorous pop-ups bring the antics of the eccentric old lady to life

Review:
Lucy (21months) got this for Christmas, although she is not allowed it at the moment as she is way too rough and this is a beautifully illustrated book with awesome pop-ups.

Adam (3 3/4yrs) loves it... every page is so bright and the pop ups are really amazing, so nice to have a new spin on a classic.

My rating: 4.5 out 5 - recommended for over 3's - or younger if they are gentle with pop-up books.
