The Junction of Sunshine and Lucky

â€œBeasts of the Southern Wildâ€ meets Because of Winn Dixie in this inspiring story of hope.

August â€œAuggieâ€ Jones lives with her Grandpa Gus, a trash hauler, in a poor part of town. So when her wealthy classmateâ€™s father starts the House Beautification Committee, itâ€™s homes like Auggieâ€™s that are deemed â€œin violation.â€ Auggie is determined to prove that she is not as run-down as the outside of her house might suggest. Using the kind of items Gus usually hauls to the scrap heap, a broken toaster becomes a flower; church windows turn into a rainbow walkway; and an old car gets new life as spinning whirligigs. What starts out as a home renovation project becomes much more as Auggie and her grandpa discover a talent they never knew they hadâ€”and redefine a whole townâ€™s perception of beauty, one recycled sculpture at a time. Auggieâ€™s talent for creating found art will remind readers that one girlâ€™s trash really is another girlâ€™s treasure.
