The Adventures of Fearless Fredd (with Two d's)!: Book One - The Assignment

by Frederick G. Fedri

The Assignment, Book One of The Adventures of Fearless Fredd (with Two d's)! takes the reader on a wild journey through his childhood. Fredd, as he calls himself, grew up in the 50s in upstate New York. Like a lot of young boys, he's rocket-obsessed and has a knack for getting into trouble. From getting a new baby in the house to competing in a school competition, there are a lot of challenges for him to overcome. He struggles with honesty and organization but learns from the lessons that life throws at him. He idolizes T.V. heroes, confronts his parents about the gremlin in the attic, helps NASA get to the moon, and puts on an interesting performance for his school principal. Fredd's adventures are equally crazy and entertaining. This book is full of good, clean, innocent fun. It is very well written, taking the reader through childhood's ups and downs. It's hard to tell what Fredd is going to do next, but you can't wait to find out. Valuable life lessons- honesty, kindness, and preparedness - are woven into every sentence. As Fredd grows and learns, so does the reader! Author Frederick Fedri has done an incredible job by making The Assignment a book that is real, emotional, and absolutely entertaining! The glossary brings these moments to life by explaining some of the less-known details. It's easy to get caught up in the setting and the time period. Some of the stories feel almost like memories, reminding you of your own schoolyard shenanigans. It's impossible not to laugh along as baby brothers, rocket ships, and class competitions lead to unexpected twists. The illustrations are very well done and add to the overall story. There aren't any spelling or grammar issues. I would highly recommend this book to any family!
