Overview
The average household generates over 100 pounds of scrap metal each year. Did you know that all of that can be recycled?
Ellie knows! She and her friends have already achieved the incredible feat of recycling a million cans, but they're not done yet. Now, they're on a mission to tackle the problem of metal items needlessly being thrown away. Determined to make a difference, they gather wires, Christmas lights, pots and pans, unicorn shoes, and other metal items from their community. Then Ellie and her classmates head to the local scrapyard to turn those treasures into valuable resources through recycling. They earn money for their school too!
We believe your kids will not only love this story but will be inspired to join in neighborhood clean-up efforts. Maybe they’ll even earn some extra cash for their piggy banks. Happy reading and recycling!
