A boy named Buzz acquires an unordinary pet-a fly. He enters the pet into a pet contest, despite the ridicule of others. Lots of silliness to appeal to young readers k-2nd grade.

It was a cute read. I read it with a group of 4th graders and they liked it too. It was amusing and cute. Buzzzzz.

Audiobook listening with Libby app through my local library. Previously read physical book with my son.

This is an easy reader I used for comprehension and fluency work while he enjoyed hearing the flow of the words and emotion/intonation used by others so he could attempt it with his own reading while still trying to understand what he is reading.

Narrator was great to listen to! Very nice voice. Lots of emotion!

Fly Guy was looking for some food. Buzz was looking for a pet for the pet show. They run into one another. Buzz catches him and he appears to know Buzz’s name. Everyone says he can’t be a pet because he’s a pest. Fly Guy proves them wrong with some tricks. He even wins an awards for “Smartest Pet” at Pet Day.

Good for beginning readers.
