Crashed, Smashed, and Mashed: A Trip to Junkyard Heaven

A Trip to Junkyard Heaven to where 12 million cars are recycled in the US & Canada every year, now you can get to see it happen. Crash! Another car is ready for the graveyard, so, chain it to the flatbed & head on in to find a final resting place. Drain the fluids, pull the engine & tires, then torch the assemblies so they can be reused. Then it's into the crusher & onto the shredder.With bold, bright photos & simple, engaging language, Joyce Slayton Mitchell & Steven Borns takes us through Junkyard Heaven from start to finish. They even provide us with a glossary & recycling facts.A must for every kid, young & old, who drools at the sight of a junkyard!
