Dear Kids!
Remember how awesome it was when sisters Zoe and Sofia decided to save the ocean from trash? They were so brave that they managed to do it! The girls made the ocean clean and beautiful again.
Having tasted victory, the sisters and their classmates started the "Friends of Nature" club. After a forest fire, they grew tree seedlings with their friends and helped restore the forest. By telling everyone how important it is to protect nature, they gathered even more people who also want to save the planet.
Today, a year later, we invite you to dive back into the world of these brave heroines. Their adventures continue. Let's join the kids on a journey to the Arctic!

Chapter 1
Winter vacation was approaching: Zoe, Sofia, and their classmates were eagerly waiting for the meeting of the "Friends of Nature" club. For this meeting, they invited a polar explorer, the captain of an icebreaker, who had recently returned from an expedition with his crew.
The children had been reading about the Arctic with great interest and dreamed of seeing it with their own eyes. And now they finally had the opportunity to hear stories from someone who had been there. The room was so quiet that it seemed even the snowflakes outside the window had frozen so as not to miss a single word.
The guest told them about the brave people working at polar stations, about the endless ice, and the glow of stars over the Arctic.
"The Arctic is not just a place on a map, it's an amazing space where rare animals like polar bears and seals live," he said. "In the Arctic, it's extremely cold, and the land is covered with snow and ice. People who live and work in these regions know many secrets that help them survive in such harsh conditions."
Scientists are actively exploring the Arctic, trying to understand how it's changing and how this affects the world around us. It's an amazing place, full of adventures and mysteries.

The children began asking questions. The captain took out some photographs, and everyone looked at the pictures with interest. Alex, Zoe's friend, said he dreamed of becoming a polar explorer. The captain replied, "Then let's gather a team and go on a journey during winter break!" The children got excited: "Is that possible?"
"Of course," answered the captain, "but we need to prepare carefully."
When the meeting ended, the children said goodbye to their guest and began discussing their preparation plan. They needed to think of everything.
Zoe suggested keeping a travel journal. Sofia said she would bring paints and draw everything she saw. Another girl named Anna said she would make a movie. The children suggested many different ideas. No one wanted to go home. Everyone's eyes were shining, and everyone wanted to talk and talk about the upcoming adventure.
