The Fly (Disgusting Creatures)

Description

This is a Disgusting Critters book. It is the first one I have read. I can’t wait to read more. I liked reading this book because it is cool and funny. It used gross words like poo! This book is all about the housefly. In the beginning of the book it taught me about other types of flies. I learned that there are more than 100,000 species of flies! I learned a lot about houseflies. The housefly has red eyes that can see in all directions. The housefly has hair. The housefly can walk on the ceiling because he has tiny bubbles of liquid at the end of his feet. The housefly can only eat liquid foods. The housefly spits on his food to make it soft for him to eat. The female can lay over one hundred eggs at one time. First, it is a maggot. Then, a pupa. Finally, a fly. Houseflies only live fifteen to thirty days. This book was easy and fun for me to read. Other kids would like to read this book, if they like to learn new things.
