  1. Is this book just like "There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Fly?" I love these typ of stories, I used to use them when i was teaching about rhyming.

  2. I never read the swallowed a bat version. I do have the swallowed a fly.

    It is great because motions can be added to these stories, and it teaches rhyming, repetition and anticipation. After a few times reading the story, the children remember which sequence comes next, and that is very exciting.
