    About this ebook

    Critical Acclaim
    The Nocturnals was launched to critical acclaim in 2016 with The Mysterious Abductions, a Kids' Indie Next List Pick, and The Ominous Eye. The Fallen Star published in May 2017, and the first Early Reader in September 2017. The fourth book, The Hidden Kingdom, published in February 2018.

    The Nocturnals features three unlikely friends: Dawn, a serious fox, Tobin, a sweet pangolin, and Bismark, the loud mouthed, pint-sized sugar glider. The stories all play out in their nighttime world with teamwork, friendship, and humor in every adventure.

    Partnerships
    NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY
    In partnership with the New York Public Library, Tracey Hecht created a Read Aloud Writing Program that she has since conducted—both in person and virtually—in over one hundred schools, libraries, and bookstores across the country.

    ZOO PARTNERS: MINNESOTA ZOO & PROSPECT PARK ZOO
    Last year, Fabled Films Press partnered with the Minnesota Zoo for an Early EdZOOCation Day with over 1,200 students from preschools and Head Start programs. At the event, Tracey Hecht conducted a storytime using The Peculiar Possum and played The Nocturnals Kindness Game with children. It was the second program the brand had run with a zoo—the Prospect Park Zoo held a similar event during the Brooklyn Book Festival.

    WYNDHAM GRAND HOTELS
    Wyndham Grand Hotels used Tracey Hecht and The Mysterious Abductions to launch a nationwide family program called Reconnected, a Family Experience, which reminds families to slow down and enjoy their time together. The program was further expanded to include a giveaway of the book in phone-free zones on the properties.

    RYAN SEACREST FOUNDATION
    Fabled Films Press partnered with the Ryan Seacrest Foundation to bring The Nocturnals program to broadcast media centers within pediatric hospitals for children and their families in Washington D.C., Nashville, and Charlotte.

    • 4/5
      The third in a series of books with an unlikely group of animals heroes, a fox, a pangolin and a sugar glider who call themselves the Nocturnal Brigade. There is always a catastrophe at the start of each book and this one begins with a meteor crashing to earth which starts a dangerous series of events. These books are pure fantasy but do teach about characteristics of unusual animals. A humorous subplot deals with the amorous sugar glider's (Bismark) cross species courtship of the fox (Dawn) who wants nothing to do with his affections. A good book for the middle grade audience for which it is intended.
    • 4/5
      Dawn, Tobin, and Bismark continue their adventures when they go on a quest to find out what is making the animals in their valley sick. Tobin is poisoned and much of the story is spent looking for a cure. Hecht uses real nocturnal animals found in exotic places. The tale contains lessons about friendship, first impression, and a very interesting biological weapon. This is the third book in the series. Through a promotion giveaway, the publisher I was randomly chosen to receive this book free. I was under no obligation to write a review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
