About this book

Meet Fly Guy! Is he a pest, or is he a pet?

A Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Book!"A fly was flying. He was looking for something to eat--something tasty, something slimy. A boy was walking. He was looking for something to catch--something smart, something for The Amazing Pet Show."In the first book in the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling Fly Guy series, a boy and a fly meet and form a beautiful friendship. In his signature style, Tedd Arnold delivers a fun, wacky story about a fly who's so smart that he can say a boy's name (Buzz!), win an award, and be Buzz's good friend.
