About The Book
Your favorite nighttime reading adventure The Nocturnals: The Mysterious Abductions by Tracey Hecht is now in Spanish! The Nocturnals: Las desapariciones misteriosas was translated by Sylvia Aguilar-Zéleny, an award-winning bilingual author and translator.
Los nocturnos es una divertida serie de libros por capítulos que sigue a tres singulares animales que resuelven misterios mediante la amistad, el trabajo en equipo y el humor. Con una estructura de capítulos breves y accesibles, esta serie se caracteriza por sus ilustraciones así como la presencia de animales en peligro de extinción y temas ecológicos.
En Las desapariciones misteriosas, los animales están desapareciendo sin dejar rastro, y depende de Dawn, una zorra sensata, de Tobin, un dulce pangolín y de Bismark, un pequeño petauro del azúcar, descubrir qué está ocurriendo. Con la ayuda de una amable wómbat, un nervioso jerbo, una manada de coyotes y unos murciélagos muy simpáticos, la brigada de animales nocturnos se adentra en las profundidades de la tierra y participa en un juego disparatado y de alto riesgo del que dependerá su supervivencia.
Combínalo con la versión en inglés: The Nocturnals: The Mysterious Abductions. (PB ISBN: 9781944020026)
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION:
The Nocturnals is a fun-filled chapter book series following three unusual animals who solve mysteries with friendship, teamwork, and humor. Features short, approachable chapters with colorful illustrations, unusual and endangered animals, and environmental themes!
In The Mysterious Abductions, animals are disappearing without a trace—and it’s up to Dawn, a serious fox, Tobin, a sweet pangolin, and Bismark, a pint-sized sugar glider, to find out why. With the help of a gentle wombat, a jittery jerboa, a band of coyotes, and some silly bats, The Nocturnals journey to the depths of the earth and play a wacky, high-stakes game that will determine their survival.
