Teachers, help make a difference! Teach your students the importance of recycling all types of metal and show them that they too can have a positive impact on the environment. Our book, “The Girl Who Recycled 1 Million Cans,” is a fun and inspiring way to get kids excited about metal recycling.

From aluminum cans to copper wire, steel appliances to brass fixtures, every piece of metal can be recycled and conserved for future use. By reading this book, kids will learn the significance of metal recycling and the importance of not throwing metal in the trash.

Let’s work together to create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
