Once upon a time, there was a little old lady who was not afraid of anything! But one autumn night, while walking in the woods, the little old lady heard . . . CLOMP, CLOMP, SHAKE, SHAKE, CLAP, CLAP. And the little old lady who was not afraid of anything had the scare of her life! But when she gets back to her house and has a little time to think things over, the little old lady realizes that the objects making the mysterious sounds aren't so scary after all. In fact, she might just be able to put them to good use...

"A delightful picture book, perfect for both independent reading pleasure and for telling aloud... The humor of the little old lady's fearless attitude and her clever solution as to what to do...will enchant young audiences. The catchy refrain never falters, and the rhythmic repeated sounds made by each of the woman's pursuers are sure to appeal to children. Lloyd's brilliantly-colored, detailed folk art-style illustrations are a perfect complement to the text." --School Library Journal
