"Max is on another adventure. This time, he and his classmates are on a field trip to the recycling center. The guide at the center explains what items can be recycled and why it is important to recycle. As Max and his friends tour the center, they see how the materials are sorted into large bins for recycling. The guide tells them that the recycled materials will be made into different things. A plastic bottle is recycled to become a shirt and newspapers are made into boxes. At home, Max does his part in helping the environment by sorting materials that can be recycled. There are color illustrations supporting the text throughout the story. In the front of the book, a brief guide explains the features of the book and provides suggestions for adults who are supporting beginning readers. This book is part of the "Read-it! Readers" series, which includes several more stories about Max."
