Overview

What really lies under the sea?

A family in Chile sets out for a glorious day at the beach. A girl and her brother happily swim with the sealife, only to discover the underwater world is littered with garbage and plastic.

At first distraught, the children contemplate what they can do to help. The girl remembers that her father told her that he recycles his fishing nets so they can have another life. They construct a sand castle recycle center where they can visit to learn how these nets and other plastics are turned into shorts, skateboards, and other items. Knowing now that they can make a difference, the boy and his sister gather the trash in the ocean, making the sealife happy again, then accompany their father to the recycle center with their used nets and other trash, soon to be treasure.

Presented in both English and Spanish, with an over-and-under, before-and-after illustrations, Better than New is a motivating tale that presents children with a problem and helps them find the solution, while encouraging a healthy relationship with the natural world.
