Shoo fly, don't bother me!
In another of Iza Trapani's well-known picture books based on nursery rhymes or songs, an adorable mouse tries to escape from a determined fly. Children will giggle with delight as they watch the mouse sneak away, hide, swat, and run from his persistent aerial companion.
As her audience has come to expect, Iza's exuberant illustrations fill the pages of the book with energy and joy, and keep the reader moving, wondering what will happen next.
Customer Review: Entertaining
My 2 1/2-year-old daughter really likes this book. We've read it numerous times, and she doesn't get tired of it. All of the pages are written to the song "Shoo, Fly! Don't Bother Me." A fly is bothering the mouse, who tries everything from telling it to go away, to hiding from it, to spraying it with water. In the end, the mouse goes to bed exhausted. The pictures are funny and cute. My 6-year-old has fun "singing" the words to the book.
Customer Review: great for bug phobias!
My daughter is 5 and autistic. She has major bug phobias and panics when a fly is around. As you can imagine, that is often and there is no peace until the fly/bug is gone. After reading this book over and over, she is still afraid of bugs, but tells them to "shoo fly" and you can see she feels stronger with these words. There's no more panic or screaming. I am so glad to have found this book for her and what a relief for me too. She also laughs and thinks its funny. Love it!
