Reach for this book when your child starts asking where the trash goes after the garbage truck picks it up, or when they are learning about their role in taking care of the planet. It is an essential tool for turning a daily chore into a meaningful act of environmental stewardship. Gail Gibbons uses her signature clear, diagram-heavy style to demystify the industrial processes behind recycling paper, glass, aluminum, and plastic. The book fosters a sense of agency and responsibility by showing kids that their small actions contribute to a much larger, fascinating system of renewal. While technical in its descriptions, it remains highly accessible for children in the early elementary years. It is an ideal choice for parents who want to move beyond the 'just because' explanation of household rules and provide a solid scientific foundation for why we care for our environment.
