Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book is sure to delight both parents and children alike. Richard Michelson's whimsical poems coupled with fantastic illustrations by Leonard Baskin combine to make this book entertaining, educational and fun. Each fly receives dual treatment by the author and illustrator. First, a painting of the fly viewed through a child's literal eye matched with a humorous poem, followed by a factual monograph and technical sketch of the fly. Michelson and Baskin have concocted a brilliant collection of flies, real or otherwise.
