Read Aloud: There Was an Old Mummy Who Swallowed a Spider

As the old mummy makes his way across a graveyard and through a haunted castle, he swallows all kinds of creepy things. From a rat to a dose of witches' brew, this mummy keeps swallowing and swallowing, until finally there's a knock on the door. You’d better beware or he might swallow…YOU! Written by Jennifer Ward and illustrated by Steve Gray.

Hey everyone! I'm Gigi and I'm excited to share with you a family-friendly place where we have lots of fun, get Magic Mailbox surprises and read great stories! Read aloud books and more for infants, toddlers, pre-school, pre-k, kindergarten, and elementary kids who love to read and have fun! This unique approach is great for all, especially reluctant readers or those who have a hard time sitting still! The twinkling sound of the Magic Mailbox brings the focus right back to the story!

As a mom and a Gigi, I know how important it is to instill a love of books in children! Having great reading skills (and a love of reading) provides a foundation for success! I look forward to spending time with you and your child/children (and grandkids)!

Please support the authors, illustrators, and publishers by purchasing your own copy of the books! Or, a visit to the local library is always a ton of fun!! Happy reading and see you soon!! Thank you for watching and don't forget to like and share!! I appreciate every one of you! Subscribe to @Gigi's Magic Mailbox
