Along the way, they uncover pressing environmental issues but also find hope in inspiring community-driven innovations for climate action.
Filled with humour, thrilling escapades, and eye-opening insights, Polo in Brazil combines fast-paced storytelling with a deeper understanding of geography, climate change, and cultural diversity. With accurate maps, authentic cultural details, and a completely new edition of Captain Polo’s Classroom glossary to demystify key concepts, this is a book that both teaches and entertains.

| Reviews | "I particularly appreciated the depth Hesse brought to his environmental advocacy. When Polo discovers the role of mangroves in carbon storage, the comic format vividly illustrates how their destruction could exacerbate global warming. The conversation between Polo and a sustainable rancher about silvopasture and agroforestry also stood out. It was refreshing to see solutions presented alongside problems, which transformed the book into a call to action rather than just a critique. The visual storytelling here was dynamic and engaging, making complex topics feel digestible. " – Literary Titan |
