Begs is a 9 metres long sperm whale who was born along the Azores archipelago.

She decided to embark on an exciting quest, hoping to inspire the people of Norway and Japan to stop whaling, by telling them about the Azorean success story.

During her trip, she will realise it’s impossible to separate the threats presented by commercial whaling from those of marine pollution.

In the first 2 books, one for children (3 to 8 years old) and other for older children and educators (9 to 99 years old) , Begs discovers plastic and collects it, with which she designs the AzoreanHood.
