  • Cute
Kiddo liked the pictures. The story isn't really there in fluidity or content.

  • Love this book
My daughter is obsesses with these books. We got this for her during Christmas and she still loves to read it almost every night (we are in February).

  • Just a fun story book.
There are a series of these "Old lady swallowed..." books. This one is exactly the same as all the others. An old lady swallows a bunch of parts, then coughs up something more complete. This is the Christmas version. She swallows bells and holly and stuff and coughs of Christmas, basically. There is nothing overly redeeming about it. It's got no moral or message or any educational value whatsoever. But it's a fun bedtime book for kids. And there is nothing wrong with a book that's just fun! Anything that encourages kids to read is a good thing!!! The illustrations are colorful and match the text perfectly. (Oddly I've noticed that's not always the case on kids' books lately. Sometimes the illustrations don't match the story well.) Overall it's a nice story. ... show more

  • We love this book!
I bought this book for my daughter when she was 4 1/2. She is 5 1/2 now and STILL loves this book! It's like the classic Woman Who Swallowed a Fly but with a holiday twist! I actually bought this book because it was cheaper than the original and I don't regret it one bit. The pictures are fun and colorful (though the lady is a little creepy in my opinion!) I would totally recommend this to anyone looking to add a fun book to their holiday book collection. (Although, we read this year round!) To add, when I read this book to my daughter, I actually sing it instead. It's got a great rhythm and my daughter and I both have it memorized so we can sing it without even having the book in hand. ... show more

  • Great for teaching rhyme and sequence.
I teach first grade and my students love this book series! They are great for teaching rhyming words and sequence. After I have read the book a couple of times, I let the children orally complete the predictable sentences. They love it, and it makes the book interactive!
