A perceptive boy worries the landfill across the street is on the verge of collapse, forming a brave plan to save his dad who works at the top of the heap. * A story of friendship, family, and kindness. . . An excellent choice for libraries needing realistic middle grade fiction, particularly with environmental or social emotional themes. --School Library Journal, starred review Nathan Savage has always been fascinated by anything that moves; he sees movement others don't notice. But what he sees now out his living room window sets off major alarm bells--the massive landfill across the road is shifting, and could be heading toward a catastrophic landslide.
The landfill is also where Nathan's dad works, on the top of the heap driving the huge compactor that crushes the garbage with its enormous metal wheels. The more Nathan watches the landfill, the more worried he becomes. What will happen to his father if he's at work when the garbage hill collapses? A fate that seems closer and closer to happening every day if Nathan doesn't act soon. But how does a ten-year old boy stop a force of nature? In this fascinating and fast-paced story, author Betty Culley exposes kids to lots of garbage, and the natural and environmental impact country landfills have on local towns.
