What is Polo talking about with Santa? And why does Santa look so glum? Could it be because the Arctic ice is melting?!
Polo the Bear, hero of the widely acclaimed comic ‘The Adventures of Polo the Bear: a Story of Climate Change’, stars again in this funny, vividly illustrated children’s book to gently uncover some hard truths behind today’s Climate Emergency in a way that children from age 6 can understand and positively engage with.
The book includes a glossary of main climate change terms designed to help young (and not so young) readers understand the essential drivers of today's climate crisis and what they and their families can do to become leaders towards a greener, healthier future.
A perfect Christmas present at a time when caring about our planet has never been more important!

It's late on Christmas Eve, and Santa's gift-laden sleigh is still on the ground at the North Pole.
Time is of the essence if the children of the world are to get their present this year.
The arrival of two old friends of Polo's - Akut and Ikut the Inuit (see 'The Adventures of Polo the Bear: a Story of Climate Change') - has generated a new, out-of-the-box idea to get Santa's sleigh airborne.
Will it work? You'll have to find out by getting the book!
Available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle.
