Who is Fly Guy, you ask? Fly Guy is the hero of a new series of books by Tedd Arnold, author of the wonderful idiom-teaching books Parts, More Parts, and Still More Parts. Fly Guy also happens to be a fly and these books chronicle his adventures with his human buddy, Buzz.
These books are excellent for emergent readers. They are very short, with very few words on each page, and of course they are full of Arnold's super illustrations. The books also introduce the concept of a chapter, the font is large, and the glossy, colorful pages are eye-catching.
The Fly Guy books are some of the most popular books in the library for kids of all ages. Students seem to like to read them over and over and they remind me of some of the old classics by Dr. Seuss, Syd Hoff, P. D. Eastman, and others of that genre. Most importantly, the kids find them hilarious and they make them want to read more!
We have several in the library and the newest one is available at the bookfair.
