Personal Reaction.
I loved reading this book it showed me how important friendship is. Buzz loved Fly Guy and wouldn't stop looking for him.. True friends are hard to come by, Buzz and Fly Guy are very lucky.

Classroom Extension Ideas.
1. I would read this to the kids in the classroom to show them what friendship really means and show them you can have a friend with anyone or anything.
2. In addition I would do a project with this book just to show the kids having friends is very important.

This story is silly I don't feel that that it much more than a fun read. It doesn't have much connection to any of the subjects or even really a unit. Children like to just hear books just for fun and don't always want to feel like they are reading boring material.

This book is a bridge book that would be good for students who are starting to read them on their own. I think students would like this story because many can relate to having a lost pet.

This early reader chapter book tells the story of a boy who has a pet fly. During a game of hide and seek, Fly Guy goes missing! Buzz goes to the dump to find him. Great for reluctant readers!
