What if you woke up one morning and could turn invisible? Would you fight crime? Save the world? If you're like Leopold, you'd rather play tricks on your big sister and steal her caramels! But being invisible isn’t all it's cracked up to be. Leopold can make his body disappear, but not his clothes. How will he pull his pranks with his pajamas showing? Is he brave enough to play his tricks in the nude? Maybe the right magic word is all he needs!

"Leopold and his older sister, Celine, engage in the usual sibling rivalry, but one day Leopold takes it to a new level when he discovers he can turn invisible. He does have to work on such minor problems as his clothes not disappearing (he's not ready to completely take them off). All he wants to do with his power is to play tricks on Celine, but he's willing to help her if she'll pay him in caramels. The episodic stories, translated from the original French, employ universal humor relating to family and school. The colorful, cartoony art adds to the laughs, while the simple panels and word balloons help young, novice readers negotiate the comic-book pages. The book includes some potty humor, and the invisible Leopold helps Celine hit a couple of mean girls in the school yard. Young readers who like goofiness and superpowers in equal parts will enjoy this first entry in the Where's Leopold? series." ―Booklist
(Journal)"Teachers and parents may raise an eyebrow at a story that uses words like 'doo doo,' 'dummy,' 'mafia,' and includes pictures a young school-aged boy in his underwear who kicks, hits, and toots, but young readers are going to love the silliness in this graphic novel, the first in the Where's Leopold? series. When Leopold discovers he can make himself invisible, hilarity ensues with Leopold playing tricks on his sister, parents, and schoolmates. Included at the end of the story is a picture puzzle for readers to solve. This storyline will be easily understood and enjoyed by younger students who are fans of the Captain Underpants books." ―Library Media Connection
