Description:
It's time for animals to take fate into their own paws! The
Endangereds is the first book in a thrilling new adventure
series by world-renowned environmentalist and Emmy-nominated
host of Xploration Awesome Planet Philippe Cousteau and
award-winning TURBO Racers author Austin Aslan.
Innocent animals are in trouble: temperatures are climbing,
tides are rising, and nature is suffering. Someone needs to step in to rescue animals
from extinction. Someone needs to turn this mess around, before it's too late.
And that someone is ... the Endangereds, the unlikeliest heroes you'll ever
meet--a superstrong polar bear, a pangolin with a genius for engineering, an
extremely sarcastic narwhal, and an orangutan with a big dream.
Together, these four daredevils are determined to save
endangered species across the globe, no matter what the risk. Rappelling into
an underground cavern to save the day? No problem. Looping video footage to
sneak through buildings unnoticed? Got it covered. Opening a doorknob? Okay,
pretty hard without thumbs. But don't worry. No matter what it takes, the
Endangereds will get the job done.
But when two of their friends get kidnapped by a villain with
a dastardly agenda, the team finds themselves up to their snouts in trouble.
Can the Endangereds save the day? Or will this villain put humans and animals
alike on the extinction list?
The A-Team meets the animal kingdom in the
first book in the thrilling new adventure series from the host of Xploration
Awesome Planet Philippe Cousteau and award-winning author Austin Aslan.
Supplemental Enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
