Gifts from the garbage truck

a true story about the things we (don't) throw away

"With themes of upcycling, anti-consumerism, love for community, and finding joy, 'Gifts from the Garbage Truck' inspires kids to think creatively and curiously about what they do (and don't) throw away! Nelson came across an oddly shaped garbage bag. It clinked and clanked and jingled and jangled. Is there something more than garbage in here? Nelson would wonder. Is there something someone might love? 'I knew it!' he'd exclaim, tearing the bag open and discovering a new gift from the trash. Nelson didn't throw the objects into the back of the truck with everything else. He had a better idea"--Publisher.
