There Was an Old Giant Who Swallowed a Clock

The old woman who swallowed a fly has finally met her match in this rollicking, rhyming adventure in overeating. Fun cutouts make room in the old giant’s suspendered trousers for the increasingly wild and zany hijinks. They begin with the accidental consumption of a ticktocking clock and end in an out-of-this-world experience. Lively images of the giant, his colorful companions, and his ever-expanding waistline accompany his hilarious but questionable gastronomic choices.
