FLIPFLOPI (BOAT MADE FROM FLIP FLOPS) (BEAMING BOOKS) (HB)

Juma is excited to go fishing with his grandfather, Babu Ali. But when they get to the beach, they find the sand covered in plastic pollution - flip-flops, plastic straws, toothbrushes, bottles and shopping bags. One of the flip-flops floating in on a wave looks like a boat. That gives Juma and Babu Ali an idea. Based on the true story of the Kenyan dhow boat Flipflopi, this tale demonstrates how innovation, creativity and determination can transform plastic pollution into something useful.
