Visually very funny and fun to read. I like the way it introduces a chapter book and maybe feels like a more advanced book. The pictures are hilarious, especially of what's floating around in grandma's stomach. The book has a story-line that builds up to a climax, then has a happy ending. Grandma looks like she always does, even after consuming half the farm. ( )

After accidentally swallowing her grandson's pet fly, Grandma tries to retrieve it by consuming progressively larger animals.

"his amusing entry in Arnold's Fly Guy beginning reader series opens with young Buzz and his pet insect Fly Guy bicycling out to visit Grandma on her farm. Open-mouthed with joy, Grandma gives Buzz such a whopping big hug that she knocks Fly Guy off his shoulder and down her throat. The scene shifts to the inside of Grandma's stomach, where islands of sandwich and apple core jut out of the digestive sludge.,,,Great fun for reading alone, sharing with a friend,"
