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.
