When a lazy bird hatching an egg wants a vacation, she asks Horton, the elephant, to sit on her egg--which he does through all sorts of hazards until he is rewarded for doing what he said he would.

In this variation on the traditional cumulative rhyme, a monster swallows ants, a lizard, a bat, and other creatures to try to cure a stomach ache than began when he swallowed a tick.

A twist on the classic tale of "There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly" takes the story even further as the lady goes about swallowing a variety of items related to school, including books, a ruler, and chalk.

Spring is in the air, and everyone's favorite old lady is ready to celebrate! That zany old lady is back-- and with a serious case of spring fever! This time she's swallowing items to make the most of the season with a beautiful garden! With rhyming text and funny illustrations, this lively version of the classic song will appeal to young readers with every turn of the page-- a wacky story for the first day of spring!--Publisher's description.
