About this Story
"Humorous, Rhyming, Absurd"
Oh man, this book is a total laugh riot! You know Lucille Colandro’s Old Lady? She’s at it again—this time, she’s scarfing down a rose like it’s a snack. Why? Who knows! But that’s just the start. Next thing you know, she’s chomping on a star, a rainbow (!), and who knows what else, all piled up in one big, chaotic belly. The fun part? She keeps adding to her wacky buffet, one gulp after another.
Kids eat this stuff up—literally. The story repeats, so they love shouting the next rhyme (bonus if you add goofy voices). The art is wild—you can see everything crammed inside her like she’s a walking piñata. Glitter hiccups, rainbow hair—it’s that kind of book. Perfect for storytime because, let’s be honest, your inner child will be giggling just as hard.
(Quick side note—if you love this vibe, maybe check out Pete the Cat by Eric Litwin or anything by Sandra Boynton for more weirdly addictive kids’ stories.)
