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.

Elina Ellis started drawing as soon as she learned how to hold a pencil, or probably even earlier. She is inspired by almost everything--children, nature, fashion, design, music, art, LIFE. Anything can spark an idea! The trick is to notice it! When she is not drawing, she likes to spend time with her friends and family, reading, running, playing squash, dancing, and traveling.
