Summary
Get ready for Fly Guy's wacky new tricks as he saves the day!In the latest installment of Tedd Arnold's NEW YORK TIMES bestselling Fly Guy series, Fly Guy puts on a show with all the new tricks that Buzz taught him. But when Fly Guy shows off The Backstroke, The Dizzy Doozie, and The Big Booger at dinner-time, Buzz tells Fly Guy only to do the tricks on command. The tricks come in handy when an annoying kid starts picking on Buzz and Fly Guy--and by the time Fly Guy pulls off The Big Booger, he runs away. Even reluctant readers will enjoy this fun, zany story about Fly Guy's exciting new tricks and how they end up helping Buzz and Fly Guy.

School Library Journal Review
Gr 1-2-Fly Guy continues to entertain with his ever-growing repertoire of skills and tricks. Here, he learns to do the backstroke in a birdbath, zoom in rapid circles around people's heads called "The Dizzy Doozie," and hang upside down from people's nostrils in a feat called "The Big Booger." When Fly Guy and his friend Buzz take the tricks to the dinner table, chaos ensues, but it's all good practice for when Buzz is confronted by a bully. Little does Buzz's tormentor know that Fly Guy has learned to use these tricks on hearing the word "Now." When the menacing kid demands a response from Buzz "NOW!," Fly Guy goes into action, resulting in a very funny and satisfying comeuppance. Arnold's distinctive and expressive black-dotted, ball-eyed characters and occasional plays on words will keep young readers smiling and rooting for this duo.-Maggie Chase, Boise State University, ID (c) Copyright 2014.
