When Anna and Patrick go to the dump with Mum and Dad it seems that it is a never- ending treasure trove of wonderful things to collect and keep -until, that is, Dad puts his foot down. But while the family have to leave behind the rubbish they find, Dad has other plans for his own personal treasure. A hugely entertaining slice of kiwi life that reflects that very peculiar 'kiwi" habit of gathering other people's rubbish First-time author Sharon Whillis writes with humour, (don't we all have to keep quiet when Dad backs the trailer?l) while Bob Darroch's illustrations capture that very "New Zealand' look.
