About this title

About the Author:

Tedd Arnold is the author and illustrator of the bestselling Fly Guy series and the illustrator of more than 60 books, including DETECTIVE BLUE. He has received Theodor Seuss Geisel Honors for HI! FLY GUY and I SPY FLY GUY! Tedd lives with his wife, Carol, in upstate New York.

From Booklist:

When Buzz’s football team is short one player before the big game, he offers his loyal pet, Fly Guy. Coach can’t hide his guffaws as the plucky insect tries out, attempting (and failing) to kick the ball, catch it, and tackle a player. Still, Fly Guy wins a seat on the bench, and Buzz makes him a tiny helmet. Together they plan a secret play and a touchdown dance, just in case. The football theme, simple vocabulary, and comical pictures will encourage many beginning readers to give this amusing book a try. Arnold’s cartoon-style drawings and squiggly-line shading make the artwork expressive as well as energetic. From the series that began with Geisel Honor title  Hi! Fly Guy (2005), this will please beginning readers as well as their younger siblings. Preschool-Grade 1. --Carolyn Phelan
