Illustrated by
Diane Le Feyer.
Eleven-year-old twins Ben and Zoe work with their uncle, founder of WILD, an organization rescuing endangered species, on undercover spy missions; in these volumes they head to Sumatra (Poacher) and South Borneo (Rainforest). Forced dialogue hampers the stories, but unique settings, bad guys, and dangerous situations add excitement. Information on endangered species, discussion questions, and writing prompts are appended. Glos. Review covers these Wild Rescue titles: Rainforest Rescue and Poacher Panic.
