Poopie the Fly and Friends Esther Hildahl

This book tells the story of Poopie the bluebottle fly and his friends Frederick, Amber, Butch, Luna the butterfly, Gordy the rat, and one other friend that Poopie doesn't tell his friends about-a black spider named Mr. Inky. At school, Mr. Horace teaches his fly students to always be aware of their surroundings, but try as he might, Poopie and his friends somehow manage to get into one dangerous situation after another. Read and discover how Poopie escapes from a poop-eating dog, a fly-eating dog, a sticky drink, a birdbath full of yellow jackets, flyswatters, the hundreds of spiders in the dark woods, and a vicious praying mantis who comes to live in their backyard with the wooden fence. Find out how Poopie eventually stands up to a bully and how at last he discovers his color blue is not dull at all, but beautiful.
