This book interestingly presents the process, as if we all start a funny adventure, how the main characters make the full black plastic bag lighter than before. Once we follow the process, we will be able to know what kinds of trash items can be recycled naturally. Ultimately, we will realize that we have to change ourselves to reduce the volume of trash as least as possible. This picture book contains various missions to make the use of trash. Let’s act on how to reuse already abandoned items by easily following methods in this book. There are many ways in this book, such as making recycled paper, making a store box using cans, making maracas using yogurt bottles, and making a worm farm to reduce food waste.

When you read this book, you might feel inconvenient. Once you find out how much trash you throw out and what kinds of trash can be recycled, you would move yourself even once more, and thoroughly follow all the rules and cautions when recycling. More importantly, we have to think whether we really need this item before buying in the first place in order to reduce trash. Today children are even more serious and sensitive than adults in terms of environment issue. Therefore, we hope our children to read this book and to raise their voices about this issue.
