  • A favorite for over 60 years

    This was one of my favorite stories when I was 4 years old. I'm 66 now and it's one of my grandchildren's favorite stories. I read it to them as though I'm each of the characters.

  • A Wonderfully Fun Read!

    Adults and children alike will LOVE this story! It’s story reads the same in premise as “The Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly” or the “Twelve Days of Christmas” song! So fun to follow and attempt to remember who chased whom! Give it a read! For certain, one of the “littles” in your life, will light up! As will you!

  • Great for the story line.

    My 40+ son and his girlfriend had to laugh when I sent them this book for Christmas. He had purchased a new house and some one had left the back door open. They had tons of flies and no fly swatter. My husband found the fly swatters and by the next day the population of flies had dwindled by much. Anyway, we had this book when our kids were young and it was one they asked to read quite often. So, my oldrest child, a son, gets to "enjoy" it once again!

  • Interesting and Enticing.

    It is a funny book and the picture are cute and the story is interesting. I started reading the book when my children were small and they loved it. I now read it to my grandchildren and they love it as much as their parents did.
