School Library Journal - 05/01/2025 PreS-Gr 3—The Old Lady who swallowed a fly is back for more, and this time with celestial bent to her eating habits. This is a completely unpredictable and chaotic take on the "Old Lady" trope, quickly descending into colorful confusion. It's impossible to decipher why she's eating all these materials—cones and glitter and even a merry-go-round—until a final reveal that almost raises more questions than it answers. It is very colorful, and there is something satisfying in the random amalgamation of objects with no clear result. VERDICT This mysterious journey will have children and adults alike wondering what on earth could happen next. - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
