There Was An Old Monster
by Rebecca, Adrian, and Ed Emberley

There was an old monster who swallowed a tick I don’t know why he swallowed that tick ’Cause it made him feel sick! When he swallowed some ants, he danced in his pants. He swallowed a lizard, a bat, a jackal, and a bear. Then he tried to swallow a lion… ROAR! Now that monster eats no more! Children will laugh along with the funny text, bright bold illustrations, and delightful song created by three generations of the talented Emberley family.
