Based on the children’s classic, I Know An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly,I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Dreidel,is a spinoff using the Jewish celebration of Chanukah as the event. The family is all gathering at  Bubbe’s (grandma’s) house for Chanukah and the cat is playing with a dreidel, a small wooden spinning top, and drops it onto the top of a cream-cheese covered bagel.  Not seeing the dreidel, Bubbe eats the bagel and the story is off.  Throughout the story, the reader will notice familiar scenes.  After awhile, the reader will expect to see scenes that are based on famous works of art.  Throughout the story, Slonim has interspersed familiar art:  Mona Lisa, The Scream, American Gothic, The Starry Night, The Thinker, only to name a few.  Of course, the subjects in the art are all family members.  A very clever way to study art as well as hear a familiar story based in holiday celebrations.
