“A boy tackles his under-the-bed nighttime monster and his insecurities with curiosity, kindness, and a bit of wisdom… . In the first of a new series, this [book] incorporates themes of friendship, bullying, and school angst, offers satisfying conclusions, and gives readers good reason to empathize with Leo and his alter ego, Fred. A welcome new pair of friends for the chapter-book set.” –Kirkus Reviews
