When Maggie's treasure collection grows too big to manage, she
finds a creative solution. Maggie finds treasure wherever she goes.
Whether it's a button, a feather or a shiny stone, she picks it up
and takes it home. At first the neighbors and city workers are
grateful to Maggie for cleaning up; the mayor even gives her an
award. But over time Maggie's collection grows bigger and bigger,
until it spills out of her house and garden in an unsightly mess.
Her parents tell her "Enough treasure!" and eventually even Maggie
realizes that something must be done. Finally, inspired by a bird
outside her window, she finds a way to share her treasure that
enchants and transforms the entire neighborhood. Jon-Erik Lappano
and Kellen Hatanaka, winners of the Governor General's Literary
Award for Tokyo Digs a Garden, have created a stunning picture book
about a child who turns her passion for collecting into a pleasure
for her community. Correlates to the Common Core State Standards in
English Language Arts: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.2 Retell stories,
including key details, and demonstrate understanding of their
