Synopsis
A listing of the many annoying activities of an old black fly (who always seems to be exactly where he shouldn't be) serves to introduce young readers to the letters of the alphabet. For example: "He coughed on the Cookies with the chocolate bits. He drove the Dog nearly out of his wits." What will become of this fly when he reaches the end of his "very busy bad day?" The rhyming song-like text features the irresistible, and quite repeatable, refrain "Shoo fly! Shoo fly! Shoo." Illustrated with watercolor paintings

Rhyming text and illustrations follow a mischievous old black fly through the alphabet as he has a very busy bad day landing where he should not be.

Industry Reviews
PW dubbed this rhythmic journey through the alphabet on the back of a pesky housefly an ``ebullient picture-book romp,'' lauding the ``waggish presentation of a basic concept.'' Ages 4-7. (Mar.)
