The Moonlight Meeting

Reviews for The Moonlight Meeting

"This banter-filled early reader describes the initial meeting between shy Tobin the pangolin, brash Bismark the sugar glider, and kindhearted Dawn the fox...the pared-down narration and dialogue quickly establish their personalities...Hecht successfully set the stage for more adventurous outings down the road."-Publishers Weekly

"Physical characteristics, personality quirks, and the beginnings of their mutual trust and friendship are aptly portrayed through both words and pictures. A few 'Nocturnals Fun Facts' at the end should help with any factual queries. Whether listening, reading along, or launching individual attempts, satisfied readers will be ready and waiting for the next installment."-Booklist

"An entertaining story of friendship and sharing, and educates us about those who are different from us."-Story Monsters Inc.
