About The Books:
When 8-year-old Agnes is signed up for SPEARS (the Society for the Protection of Endangered and Awesomely Rare Species), she has no idea of the adventures that lie ahead with her elephant-shrew mentor Attie (short for “Attenborough”). Operation Honeyhunt sends them to the Brazilian rainforest, Operation Icebeak sends them to a marine outpost in Antarctica, and Operation Sandwhiskers sends them to the Sahara desert.
