Synopses & Reviews
This is the diary...of a fly. A fly who, when she's not landing on your head or swimming in your soup, is trying to escape her 327 brothers and sisters who are driving her crazy!
Even though she's little just like her best friends Worm and Spider Fly wants to be a superhero. And why not? She walks on walls, sees in all directions at once, and can already fly!
Doreen Cronin and Harry Bliss, the team behind the New York Times bestsellers Diary of a Worm and Diary of a Spider, reach hilarious heights with their story of a little fly who's not afraid to dream big. Really big.
Review
“Cronins spot-on humor and Blisss uproarious ink-and-watercolor panels make Fly, and this third outing in the series, both irresistible and undeniably super.” Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Review
“The attention to detail (flies sitting on thumbtack seats at a toothpaste-box table in the cafeteria, Fly in her time-out is just glowing eyes on a two-page black spread) and a lively layout that has a comic-book vibe are sure to appeal. Hilarious.” School Library Journal (starred review)
