Author Spotlight: Tedd Arnold -

Flies are such a nuisance. They’re pests who don’t understand the words “personal space“. Just buzzing and flying, and flying and buzzing, with no real purpose except: annoyance.

But…

One guy took one fly and injected it with a real purpose, giving us one of the best picture book series EVER. Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, flies and guys– let’s give a round of applause to: Tedd Arnold.
