Gators and panthers and crabs, oh my! The classic cumulative tale There Was an Old Lady gets a Floridian flourish in this charming adaptation.

The gator predictably continues swallowing bigger and bigger creatures until the unexpected happens—all over the page! Along the way to its hilarious ending, the story—strengthened by the delightful illustrations—introduces readers of all ages to the many critters, both big and small, of the Florida swamp.
