Publisher Comments:

"Old black fly's been buzzin' around and he's had a very busy bad day". There's an old black fly. There's a family. And there's a hot summer day. One of them has to go. Aylesworth's rhyming words--with their shout-aloud refrain--move as fast as the fly, and Gammell's explosive art is unforgettable. Full-color illustrations.
