Reviews

""One of the standout features of the series is how it offers practical, in-text solutions that readers can incorporate into their daily lives. Inspired by Captain Polo, I've started reusing paper wherever possible and am constantly on the lookout for ways to repurpose other resources. The overall message of climate responsibility resonated deeply and stuck with me long after I finished reading."" - Literary Titan ""Captain Polo's adventures provide a powerful learning tool that raises awareness in a way that's both engaging and enjoyable on a very serious topic that affects us all. I highly recommend this adventure - it is timely and relevant to us all as global citizens."" - Dr. Ashton Berry, Global Climate Change Programme Coordinator, BirdLife International. ""I really liked that the easy to follow storyline created excitement and suspense, whilst also introducing the proper terminology around climate change (words highlighted are found in a glossary at the back), along with some very interesting facts to back up the storyline...."" - Susan Fiddes, Reedsy Discovery ""What a great concept - the comic book where goodies and baddies have battled it out over time - provides such an easy, engaging and energetic medium to understanding one of the most important issues of our time. I am now better informed..."". - Liz Carlile, Director of Communications, International Institute for Environment and Development. ""This book combines wonderful illustrations with an equally well-constructed story of Captain Polo and his Penguin friend embroiled with Conor and his gang of ruffians as they journey from Pole to Pole. Captain Polo's adventures are a great way to get your child started on climate literacy."" - Asha Alexander, Principal and Executive Leader on Climate Change at GEMS Education, Dubai, UAE. ""This is the fourth in the series and it is a definite must-have, must-read book for children and adults of all ages. A perfect conversation starter in homes and in the classrooms. The Adventures of Captain Polo should be made a mandatory read and part of our education curriculum."" - Argyro Graphy, Goodreads ""...very good to read with children as they are beginning to learn about climate change - the storyline is so good it doesn't feel like preaching. It's so important for children to understand the problems facing us ...My grandchildren are definitely 'on board' with Polo."" - Gloria Barnett, Amazon customer (UK) ""Mr Hesse does an excellent job of making complex issues intelligible without talking down to the reader. This is a must-read book for kids and adults, especially if you enjoy comics."" - Adam Thyer, Founder, GreenExecutive.com
