Interview: Meet Author Sands Hetherington, Author of Night Buddies, A Lights Out Adventure Series for Kids - Page 2

Part of: Mom Prefers

The book is all about the nighttime adventures of a young boy named John, who is not ready to go to sleep and his friend, a bright red crocodile named Crosley who turns up under John’s bed. They sneak out of John’s house using Crosley’s “I-ain’t-here-doodad” which makes them invisible to John’s parents. They then embark on an adventure chasing down enemies and cleaning up one mess after another as they solve the earthshaking mystery: who stole all the pineapple cheesecakes from the only factory in the world that makes them!

The second book in the series Night Buddies, Imposters, and One Far-Out Flying Machine, due out Fall 2012. It features John and Crosley and introduces a bunch of new characters. “My favorite part is the fantastic flying machine that I really can't talk about here. I hope you'll check it out,” shared Sands.

Night Buddies is an astonishing and inventive adventure with unforgettable cast of characters that will make you laugh and win over your heart. The book has lots of thoughtful, multi-layered twists, giggles, and perils—things kids can relate to and enjoy.

The story is filled with well-drawn fascinating characters embellished with some excellent illustrations by Jessica Love. The fonts change with emotion and circumstances, a fact that makes every page a little artwork that keep the child’s eye involved in the book. And just to make sure the youngsters reading this book have the inside information for a mystery, a glossary of ‘Night Buddies Uncommon Words’ is supplied–explaining 'Jeeks’ ‘Wuff,’, ‘Snerk!’ etc.  The 128-page book is packed with all-new picture drawings by illustrator Jessica Love.
