Summary
Sometimes we throw things away when we no longer want or need them. But what if they’re still good? A man named Nelson Molina wondered about this and did something about it. As a sanitation worker in New York City, Nelson saved more than forty-five thousand
items from his garbage truck, including toys, musical instruments, and thingamajigs. He gave them new life and shared them with others at the Treasures in the Trash Museum.
This is a true story about one man who saw the world differently and made things better because of it. It’s about being curious and creative. It’s about reusing and upcycling. It’s a story we can all participate in when we think about the things we (don’t) throw away.(P)2024 Recorded Books
