Extrait du livre Caillou, The magic of compost
Caillou loved spending the day with his grandma. "Grandma, look! I'm a magician! Abracadabra!" Caillou said. He really wanted to be a magician and do amazing magic tricks. "Do you think you can make a lunch disappear?" Grandma asked. "Oh, yes!" Caillou answered.
After lunch, Grandma dropped the banana peel into a small bucket beside the door. Caillou was curious, so he looked in the bucket. "Is that your garbage can?" Caillou asked. "No, it's not," Grandma replied. Caillou made a face. "But it's all gooshy and yucky." "I need it for my garden," Grandma explained. "Your garden?" Caillou asked. "Come, I'll show you."
Grandma took the bucket outside and went to a large barrel. She took the lid off and dumped the contents of the bucket inside. "Is that a garbage can?" Caillou asked. "No, it's a composter," Grandma explained. "I put in food scraps like fruit and vegetables, but no meat and no dairy. That means no cheese or milk."
