Description

There was an old giant who swallowed a clock.
He had such a shock when he swallowed that clock!

But then he swallows his knitting to muffle the clock, and swallows some moths to munch through his knitting! Will he ever stop?

With a riotous rhyming text from Becky Davies (The Three Little Pugs and the Big Bad Cat and Old MacDino had a Farm) this hilarious retelling of the classic nursery rhyme, There was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly, is brought to life with peep-through pages and quirky illustrations from Elina Ellis.



About the Author
Becky is a children's book editor and sometimes author from the South West of England. Her favourite things are animals, books about magic, and anything sparkly. In a parallel universe she lives in Hawaii, where she works in a dog sanctuary and surfs until the sun sets beyond the horizon. Elina Ellis was born and grew up in Ukraine. She made up stories and drew funny pictures from the age of three, so she decided not to let her skills go to waste and graduated with an MA in Children's Book Illustration from the Cambridge School of Art. She's been drawing funny pictures and making up stories ever since!

Reviews
"This takes the fun one step further and swaps the old biddy for a giant, the insect for a clock and some knitting to stifle the ticking..." -- Families (Hampshire North)

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
