About this audiobook

The nursery rhyme says only that an old woman lived in a shoe and had so many children she did not know what to do. L. Frank Baum asks how a woman came to live in a shoe at all. In his story, a loving woman with a house full of lively children makes a home in an oversized shoe, and the children's days are full of small adventures. Baum's funny, warm retelling of the rhyme is a short story for bedtime. Susie Hackel reads it in fourteen minutes. For young listeners who know the old verse and would like to hear the rest.
