Buzz has an unusual pet, a fly, whom he names “Fly Guy”.  Fly Guy is a very intelligent fly and he has learned several new tricks. Buzz decides to set up a circus act to entertain his friends and to show off Fly Guy’s talent. Fly Guy swims the backstroke in the bird bath, he flies in circles around the head of a one of the kids in the audience, and then he hangs from Buzz’s nose upside down.

At dinner that night Buzz tells his parents that Fly Guy has learned some new tricks, at which point Fly Guy does a repeat performance of the day’s show. Unfortunately, Fly Guy  makes a rather messy disaster of the dinner table. Buzz decides that Fly Guy should only perform his tricks when he hears the word “NOW.”   Fly Guy’s performing on command helps Buzz get rid of a potential bully that very night.

In this amusing beginner reader, Buzz and Fly Guy once again prove that together they can overcome all kinds of obstacles. The story is divided into short chapters and it is illustrated with full color drawings.
