A Fly Went Mike McClintock Books

My son, who is now 41 years old, loved this book. It was among his favorites. He was about 2 yrs old when we started reading it to him. Now I bought a new copy for my granddaughter who is about the same age. There are nice pictures, a real story line, appropriate for young children.
This is one of those food-chain books where the bigger animals are chasing the smaller animals. There is a lot of room in this book for interaction with the child. Very quickly they learn which animal comes next. It is a long book and the child will have to exhibit some patience. But nobody says you have to read the whole book at once. This is a good addition to a child's library.

A Fly Went Mike McClintock Books Reviews

The absolute best book. I received my first copy as a young kids and read it so many times. Absolutely loved it. Just bought a bunch to give to nieces and nephews as they learn English. I hope they love it as much as I did/do.
One of my favorites from my own childhood. I'm so happy to have found this book again. It's rhyming is good - steady and oredictable, just what kids need who are learning to rhyme. The growing sequence of animals gives great memory practice. And it has a happy ending. It's just an all around great little book.
My grown daughters loved this book when they were little. The copy we had was in such bad shape from use. Over the years, I always remembered this book. With the birth of my grandchild, I started a Grandma Library with all the books my three children read over their childhood - going back 30 years. I have a great collection of books. Well, my granddaughter went into my box of "Grandma" books and pulled this book out. She is almost two years old. After reading this to her about 20 times, she still can't get enough of it. She loves the sing song rhymes for the "chase". She also loves that it is a little sheep with a tin can that is causing all the commotion. She says goodbye to all the animals, frog, fly when they part ways. She also loves that the "hunter" is wearing his underwear and slippers.

I find this book holds up after the years we have had it in our family, to the multiple reading with my granddaughter. It is wonderfully written, with illustrations that are great! That pig!! what a page.

I hope you enjoy this as much as my family. No violence, except at my granddaughter's age, I said hurt instead of kill. I feel the message of communication and aiding is more an important lession than showing a man with a gun. Remember ET? trying to remove the guns? How pointless that was?
This has been a favorite of my family for over 45 years. Now that my children are grown and gone on with their families I have a new little on to share A Fly Went By. My old copies have somehow disappeared so here I am again ordering this delightful story with a new little one. This story is as exciting as Wacky Wednesday and McEligot's Pool. I love the old Seuss stories.
I loved this book as a child, and my children love it now. It's really nice. The rhymes are fun, the story funny, and there's a lesson to be learned, too... About fake news and ensuring you get all the facts before jumping to conclusions, and things like that.

I personally bought a used book. There was one page that had a dog ear in it. Other than that, the book felt brand new. Very happy with this purchase.
I love this book!!! I'm 62 years young, and when my son was little I bought it for him and he liked it too. Gave a copy to my nephew & niece and they loved it too. When they grew up and became parents I gave it to their kids, who also liked it. Hey, it's a wonderful book for all ages!!! ) I gave one to my granddaughter recently and she said, "Gramma Sassy you already gave this book to me"!! I told her that I would return it and she said not to because she can keep that one at her other gramma's house. She loves this book.
I was shocked that online you see a couple of pages showing a fly going by a child near the lake...the fly has a frog going after it then the cat is after the frog, then the dog chases the cat. OK. But, the next pages get very scary with violent actions. the pig tries to bite the dog, the cow is trying to hit the pig. Midway thru, "but some one bad has made us run! He wants to kill my Little One".."I told the fox Oh, shame on you...you want to kill the little cow! You stop, or I will whip you - NOW"...it gets worse..."This is why I ran - Back in the woods I saw a man! I saw a man! He had a gun! He wants to get me! Let me run!" Followed by several pages of a man with a gun....Violent messages throughout the book. I was shocked at the content of this book.
