Curious Tobi receives a mysterious chest – this is the beginning of an amazing journey around the world, from Vietnam to Brazil. It will help him appreciate the beauty of nature and the value of friendship.

Curious Tobi wants to know what’s inside a mysterious box that fell into his hands. He realises that there’s only one person who might have the key to unlock it: Marina, his childhood friend, who sails around the world. That must be the beginning of an adventure! Tobi doesn’t need to be told twice to set off. First, he’s going to visit Sơn Đoòng in Vietnam – the world’s largest natural cave. When he finds Marina, he’s also going to see a Mongolian yurt and ride a camel. Then, he’s going to meet Jaupú – an indigenous community living in Brazil. The visit to the jungle will bring him closer to solving the mystery box puzzle and help him find out what its first owner meant when she wrote about “the treasure of the flying rivers”.

According to some studies, the Amazon rainforest is home to 10% of all the wildlife species on Earth. One square kilometre of the forest contains up to 1100 different tree species. That’s why rainforests are called the Earth’s green lungs!
