Movie Reviews of There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly... and More Stories That Sing (Scholastic Video Collection)
Movie Review: Why is this song such a hit?
Summary: 4 Stars
I borrowed this DVD from our library. I don't know why this was a popular song when I was growing up, but I guess you can say there is some educational value- my children can identify the animals. The story is read first, and then sung. Being from NYC, I wasn't at all bothered by the accent, and the humor is very NYC. My 2 year old loves the Antartic songs, and the animation is cute but the vocabulary is for a 12 year old and the songs are long and more like broadway story songs. There is another version of "I Know an Old Lady" on the Scholastic Video collection with Wheels on the Bus, sung by Burl Ives, and the pictures aren't as dark but the song's tempo is slow and the intonation monotonous. I highly recommend that video with a beautiful version of Over in the Meadow, and Dem Bones. Another very strange choice for a Scholastic song, but another one of my children's favorites. The songs on this collection are more "singable". We highly recommend the Goodnight Gorilla scholastic tape, and also buy the book with the cd of The Napping House - it's worth it!
