In the latest installment of the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling Fly Guy series, Buzz and Fly Guy spend a day together playing some spooky games and doing arts and crafts projects. When Buzz goes to bed, Fly Guy stays awake and is "bizzie"! Buzz has a nightmare that a gigantic Frankenfly monster is out to get him! But when he wakes up, all he sees is Fly Guy, who fell asleep making posters showing that he and Buzz are best friends.
The wacky dream scene involving Frankenfly is fun and hilarious, not scary. Buzz awakens to a sweet message of friendship that is nothing to be afraid of.

Cute! Funny! And Sweet!
By Gabrielle
My readers are two 2-1/2-yer-old girls. They like! And so does mom.I never thought I'd think a picture book about a fly would be cute, but this fly IS cute! Big eyes and adorable expressions. I like reading a book about bugs that doesn't depict them as icky.And I never thought a picture book about a fly and Frankenstein situation would be sweet...but it IS! All of the books in this series have a wonderful undercurrent of friendship. The boy and his fly are total buds. A nice departure from the usual friendship between a boy and his dog.We have two in the series, and I think we will get Fly Guy #8: Fly Guy Meets Fly Girl! next.

By J. Hundley
As pretty much always, Fly Guy doesn't disappoint here. Arnold's pictures are witty, bold and reward looking closely; the text is pretty much perfect for the very early reader; the plot and resolution are sweet and funny and representative of the enduring bond between a boy and his pet fly. I'll kind of miss these when my youngest gets too old for them.
