Winner, Mom's Choice Silver Award With colorful illustrations and fact-filled diagrams complementing the adventure, this picture book tells the story of how Peter and his friends help Mr. Ogilvy rediscover forgotten belongings in his shed. They help him organize and distribute the unwanted stuff to reuse centers in the community, learning the many ways and benefits of reusing. The children have fun with forgotten treasures such as old toys, electronics, art supplies, and even a broken-down car, while they work together to determine how the items should be reused, in the process saving resources, energy, and money, while diverting materials from the landfill.

Young readers will learn about reusing in an engaging matter as the story unfolds and the children think of creative ways to find new life for Mr. Ogilvy’s old stuff. Every page of this book is chock-full of information, including definitions for specific reusing terminology such as upcycling, reclamation, adaptive reuse, etc. On each spread, there’s the main text of the story as well as sidebars offering facts and ideas about the reuse of items. The supplemental materials at the back of the book provide various questions and activities that could be used by parents or educators to further augment the lessons contained in the story.
Within the larger context of re-using materials to lessen negative environmental consequences, the book also highlights economic points. For instance, a useful bit of information provided is that when donating goods to a non-profit, the giver may receive a letter for tax purposes.
