A Book of Flies Real or Otherwise

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Leonard Baskin. A brief, incisive author's note precedes the body of this lively poetic introduction to nine real flies and four insects popularly called flies. Far from stodgy, the book contains attention-getting magnificent illustrations, conversational text with just the kind of detail to entice readers, and poems--jaunty, rhythmic rhymes--that lie lightly on the tongue and ear.
Reviewer: Mary M. Burns | Horn Book Magazine Issue: September, 1999
