"This beginning reader Geisel Honor book is cartoonish with its illustrations of Buzz and his pet fly, Fly Guy. Buzz narrowly misses losing his playful pet fly during a game of hide-and-seek gone awry. This is the perfect beginning reader book for kindergarten-second graders."

— Horace, 1/31/2014" I Spy Fly Guy is a great book for children to get introduced to chapter books. There are pictures on every page and only three chapters, but they will still be proud that they read a chapter book. This is a fun series with funny pictures. It is also a Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Book which makes me like it even more! "
