Editorial reviews

Skip Hinnant's buoyant, jovial performance of Lucille Colandro's There Was a Cold Lady Who Swallowed Some Snow propels this clever reimagining of the popular There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly.

This lighthearted tale will keep kids guessing as to why the Cold Lady decides to ingest an interesting assortment of wintry objects until the satisfying conclusion that ties everything together, and they will be entranced by Hinnant's animated delivery and the effortless flow of Colandro's whip-smart rhyming scheme.
