"Young listeners will find themselves greatly entertained by this playfully illustrated guide to the life of a little fly. Harry Bliss, illustrator of this popular "diary" series, entertains with both his voice and his drawings. Bliss captures listeners with his falsetto fly-girl voice, and he has fun to the very last words he reads from the back cover of the book's illustrated captions. ...Bliss shows he's a talented performer with a great sense of pace, tone, and comic timing."

"Listeners are treated to Marilyn Singer's second collection of folktale-based reverso poems, her own poetic creations whose lines produce whole new meanings when read from top to bottom or from bottom to top. As narrator, Singer is tuned in to sharing the nuances that changes in punctuation, word order, and emphasis bring to the same poetic lines. ... Joe Morton narrates with playfulness..."

ALA Odyssey Award for Excellence in Audiobook Production "Listeners will start grinning from the very first words of this production as narrator Dion Graham and author/artist Christopher Myers talk over each other, jockeying to introduce the story. Two young friends hit the basketball court to play a game of H.O.R.S.E. and trade trash talk--an impossible game that quickly moves beyond the court into the realm of the fantastic and all the way into outer space." -AudioFile Magazine
