Ada and the rubbish

<<Dear children, Ada is the main character of this story. 

Together with her you'll discover that all the things that we throw away can be used again and can be transformed into new objects... but beware, this magic is possible only if the rubbish is divided and separated! How?

Let's find out together with Ada... >>

<<This evening near the front door there are two boxes. What's inside? One is full of plastic bottles, the other is full of old paper. Why?
Because the rubbish must be separated, says Mom.
So it can be transformed into other objects, explains Dad.
Then Ada begins to think about it. Rubbish can be transformed? In what? She is in her room, she puts her head on the pillow and she closes her eyes.>>

<<Great! Ada opens it. There's a drawing on the first page. It is a drawing of a bucket made with plastic bottles.
Now Ada understands why Mom and Dad use to separate rubbish.

She decides to make the same thing too!!
Old things are precious and can be converted into something new. Like her notebook, the most beautiful notebook that Ada has ever dreamed.>>
