Reggie starts to doubt that monsters are real when he begins to find natural explanations for what he mistakenly believed were monsters. Rufus is often mistaken by Reggie as a monster.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars - 

Reggie and Rufus searched the house for monsters. Cute way to talk about dealing with monsters in the dark. They used tricks to try and get the monsters to come out. Rufus was the monster in the shadows some of the times. In the end, they both liked the light. I would recommend this story for any families with children afraid of the dark.
