At age fourteen, Jade Hameister, an Australian teen, had a dream to complete the Polar Hat Trick. In 2015, she skied to the North Pole. In 2016, she completed the Greenland Crossing. In 2018, she arrived at the South Pole. In her own words, Jade tells her story, from the beginning of her dream, through the planning and completion of all three polar expeditions.

I read this book, from beginning to end, in a little over twelve hours. It was captivating. Not only did Jade tell her story beautifully, but she seemed to capture the awesomeness and expanse of the polar region. It's just a remarkable journey.
