Ride, Fly Guy, Ride! (Fly Guy #11) By Tedd Arnold–ADVISABLE


Arnold, Tedd Ride, Fly Guy, Ride! (Fly Guy #11) 32 pgs. Cartwheel Books, 2012. $6.99 Content: Language: G (0 swears); Mature Content: G Violence: G. EARLY READER
When Buzz and his pet fly, Fly Guy, go for a car ride, it turns into a big adventure. Fly guy gets sucked out the window and Buzz and Dad are determined to go to great lengths to get him back! Will Fly Guy escape a truckers mouth, an elephant’s train car, or even a rocket going to space?
This was fast paced and action packed for such a short book. The illustrations are bright and fun. I like that the author has introduced little chapters, even though the book is so short it can go without. This allows readers to get used to chapter breaks and works great for mini lessons on the concept. I thought this book was pretty goofy but students LOVE LOVE LOVE fly guy, so I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this book.
