The Fly

By Petr Horacek

Hello! It's me - the house fly. Open my book and take a look inside. There's never a dull moment.

The Fly doesn't understand why people won't share their food with him, or play with him ... and why do they keep trying to swat him? He's not doing any harm. Be careful not to swat the Fly yourself when you close the book in this fun and buzzing novelty book from Petr Horacek.

Reviews

'Painted, textured collage mixed with large crayoned speech bubbles makes for fun interactive reading.' The Irish Times

'The Fly by Petr Horácek (Walker £10.99) is an irresistible, eye-catching book with a curving loop-the-loop signature, a fly path...This story may have the unwelcome effect of making children housefly-friendly, but enjoy: it has the wittiest ending - begging the reader not to slam the book shut and make its hero history.' The Guardian

'irresistible' The Observer

'Striking and original.' Books For Keeps
