Very cute! submitted by VickyB77 on August 17, 2012, 9:37am My little guy LOVES the Fly Guy series. This is a new take on an old poem - but still great!

Crazy lady submitted by Yanzhang on August 3, 2013, 2:32pm I have no ideal about my kids like to read the crazy lady who swallow staff

Silly fun submitted by Zekicmom on August 18, 2013, 1:36pm Another book in the great "Fly Guy" series. Buzz takes his pet fly with him to visit his grandmother, and then the adventure begins. Great illustrations really capture the the series of events.

Weird submitted by EstherMaya on August 19, 2013, 12:00pm If that lady swallowed a fly, I don't know why she swallowed a goat and stuff. It's just freaky and weird.

Fly guy submitted by Lila F. on June 18, 2018, 8:31am Young readers will definetley enjoy these books!

Not the usual "Fly Guy" formula, but funny submitted by FordAlpha on August 14, 2018, 9:37pm The "Fly Guy" books are well constructed, humorous stories for beginning readers. This one is an unusual entry in the series; rather than an original story, it's a variation on the well known poem/song "There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly". The "old lady" here is Buzz's Grandma, who swallows Fly Guy by accident and then, without warning, begins gulping down larger and larger critters to chase him. Happily, Buzz and Fly Guy manage to stop the insanity and engineer an escape before Grandma can swallow a horse (which, in the original poem, would have resulted in her death, of course). My kids laughed aloud at the silly absurdity of the tale.

Fun submitted by jcottey on August 17, 2019, 8:38pm A fun, Fly Guy take on the popular song!

Fly Guy takes it to a new level submitted by keldan315 on June 25, 2023, 8:59pm Largely in the same format you'd expect from the old lady who swallowed a fly rhymes, but in true Fly Guy fashion taken up a notch in the silliness factor
