Better Than New: A Recycle Tale/Mejor Que Nuevo: Un Cuento de Reciclaje

“Will You Help Me?”

Isidora and Julian, playing in the Chilean ocean, hear a plaintive cry—a sea lion is tangled in an abandoned fishing net. They free their ocean friend then consider what to do with the net. With the help of a bird building its nest, they recycle it into something useful again, something better than new.

Presented in both English and Spanish, Better Than New: A Recycle Tale/Mejor que Nuevo: Un cuenta de reciclaje is an inspiring story that presents children with a problem and shows how they find the solution, while teaching about the dangers of ocean pollution and encouraging a healthy relationship with the natural world.
