While Bishu tries to solve the problem of a growing garbage valley, the trash mountain keeps expanding because other villagers continue throwing waste there daily. Bishu invents a machine that turns garbage into useful, beautiful things, but his efforts alone cannot stop the surge. The narrative builds urgency and emphasizes community action.","The Garbage Monster  \nAuthor: Layla Audi Illustrator: Hanan Al-Karargy English  \nThe Garbage Monster  \nWritten by Layla Audi.  \nImages by Hanan Al-Karargy. © Asafeer Education Technologies FZ LLC, 2018.

He loved collecting tin cans, bottlesand paper and wouldn’t throw them away, but why?  \nWell, Bishu reused them to make lots of new things. He would make a car for his toy elephant, a three-eyed monster or an aeroplane. Yet, he was the only one in his village doing this. The rest of the village people threw their garbage in a nearby rocky prickly valley.  \nThe valley was already full of garbage and this made young Bishu sad and gloomy.  \nUnfortunately, one day Bishu woke up to bad news. The garbage in the valley reached the sky. It had become a huge garbage mountain.  \nBishu had to do something about it quickly. He thought and thought, then he got an idea!  \nHe invented a machine that turned garbage into beautiful things. He started cutting and shredding, hammering and taping things together. After a few days, his machine was ready so he carried it to the valley.  \nOn one side of the machine, Bishu would place any garbage. Straws, some strands and rubber bands and the machine would turn it into nice usable things:  \na chocolate bar, a mop to clean and a pogo stick. So Bishu went on stuffing the machine all through the day and his machine did its job creating wonderful things.  \nBut, did the trash mountain shrink?  \nNo, unfortunately not. It didn’t even stay the same. It grew and grew, even more than before!  \nThis was because the rest of the people in the city threw lots of garbage there every day. Bishu could not clean this mess on his own. So, he decided to ask his people for help and off he went to the village.","cbCait65H61SzdjQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCait65H61SzdjQ","pdf",873019,26,"English","en",105,"# Bishu’s Reuse Habit\n## The Growing Garbage Valley\n## The Garbage-Turning Machine\n## The Trash Mountain Gets Bigger\n## Asking the Village for Help","[{\"question\":\"Why is Bishu sad about the garbage valley?\",\"answer\":\"The valley becomes full of garbage, and the trash level reaches the sky, creating a huge garbage mountain.
