Pig is having a good, happy day—until he’s bothered by a Pesky Fly. Pig needs to figure out the best way to handle it, instead of yelling or swatting… that wouldn’t be kind! Fly needs to figure out how to better interact with his friends and respect Pig’s space, and decides Pig is a good friend to have! Pig and Fly work through their problem and move on to having a feel-good day…together! Includes a “Note to Parents and Caregivers” about working through frustration in friendships.

Reviews for Bye Bye Pesky Fly

“This was a very cute book that looks at friendships in a whole new way. While the friendship of these two unlikely characters is not traditional however they still learn to find friendship through their adversity. This is a great book that was a ton of fun. My daughter and I loved the new way of looking at friendships and it opened us up to talking about a lot of issues in regards to the friendships she has as well!” —Dad of Divas ""Lysa Mullady has written an empowering book that will help children learn to handle annoying situations... Mullady's engaging and witty text wraps itself creatively around Janet McDonnell's cleverly exuberant and playful illustrations."" —Children's Books Heal ""I liked the book because it was funny, and the Fly was cute. The illustrations were cute and colorful. I also thought the plot was good, and I liked that the book was about friendship. My favorite part of the book was when the Pesky Fly landed on the Pig’s nose."" —Kids' Book Buzz (Maddie, Age 5) ""The illustrations are strong enough to stand on their own.  Children will love Pig and certainly will identify with his feelings towards the pesky fly.  The book is inspirational and the dark feeling of frustration is woven perfectly through this relatable story.  I highly recommend this book and would suggest it be included in classrooms and school libraries."" —Storywraps “A story with hidden morals, a kind of behavioral choices sampler for kids that offers choices for dealing with annoying or frustrating situations.” —Midwest Book Review
