Will Coach put Fly Guy in the big game?

"Flies can't play football," says Coach. But Fly Guy and Buzz are determined to prove him wrong. Fly Guy tries to kick a football, go out for a pass, and tackle his friend Buzz. In the end, Fly Guy helps Buzz score, and they get to do a hilarious touchdown dance.Using hyperbole, puns, slapstick, and silly drawings, Tedd Arnold delivers an easy reader that is full of fun in his NEW YORK TIMES bestselling Fly Guy series.

      K-Gr 2-It's football season, and Buzz's team, the Go-Getters, needs one more player. Fly Guy, Buzz's pet fly, tries out but cannot kick the ball, catch a pass, or tackle. The coach fills the spot and, at the big game, the Go-Getters score; then their opponents scoreagain and again. With only one second left and the new player hurt, Fly Guy is sent onto the field. He and Buzz put their secret plan into action, which involves the nose of the opposing team's quarterback. The pencil and watercolor cartoon illustrations feature exaggerated eyes and great expressions. This easy reader is chock-full of humor."Linda Staskus, Parma Regional Library, OH"

      When Buzzs football team is short one player before the big game, he offers his loyal pet, Fly Guy. Coach cant 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. Arnoldscartoon-style drawings andsquiggly-line shading make theartwork expressive as well as energetic. From the series that began with Geisel Honortitle Hi! Fly Guy (2005), this will please beginning readers as well as their younger siblings.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2008, American Library Association.)

      Buzz and his zany pet housefly, Fly Guy, are back. This time the duo goes out for the football team. Unfortunately for Fly Guy, he's benched--until his special talents are needed on the field. The text's short, accessible sentences, supported by colorful cartoonish illustrations, provide silly, confidence-building fun for early readers.
