Bookroo's summary

Dive into the quirky world of the common housefly, where ceiling strolls and revolting meals are just the beginning. Explore its hairy body, peculiar habits, and strange diet in a humorous yet educational journey. Can you handle the gross yet fascinating facts about this tiny creature?

From the publisher

The first in a series of humorous books about disgusting creatures, The Fly is a look at the common housefly. It covers such topics as the hair on the fly’s body (requires a lot of shaving), its ability to walk on the ceiling (it’s pretty cool, but it’s hard to play soccer up there), and its really disgusting food tastes (garbage juice soup followed by dirty diaper with rotten tomato sauce, for example). Although silly and off-the-wall, The Fly contains factual information that will both amuse and teach at the same time.
