Synopsis

Perfect for fans of InvestiGators and The Wild Robot, 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 illustrations, endangered animals, and environmental themes!

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.
