Hi, Fly Guy! by Tedd Arnold is funny sweet book about what makes a pet and what makes a friend. Done with trademark Tedd Arnold style and warmth, Fly Guy will swoop into your heart. The icky humor in the story will draw boys learning to read, as will the flasy cover. This is a great easy reader to offer to kids, because it manages to flow and avoid the sometimes stilted vocabulary and story of easy readers. Highly recommended.
