Owen really connected with the first book "The Girl Who Recycled One Million Cans". Owen is inspired to help the planet by recycling at home. He took the book to his Kindergarten class and his teacher read it to the class so other kids can learn how they can help the planet.

So, I am happy to report that Owen's interest in metal recycling has now gone up another notch after reading,
" A Trip to the Scrapyard". Owen was excited to read this book and see what new lessons Ellie and her friends were up to. We have really enjoyed reading this together and see Owen's enthusiasm, especially for the metal shredding process and how the metal gets re-used. He understood how important this is.

After reading the book he took these actions: looking around at our house for other metal items to be recycled and using magnets. The metal shredder was a big highlight- he wants to see one in real life. As expected, he has taken the book to school to share with classmates: Owen thought Ellie and her class were so lucky to have a field trip to the scrapyard!
