Is it trash or treasure? Gavi and Mo just can't agree. But they CAN agree that they are the very best of friends.

Two friends—a hippo and a kangaroo—set off to spend a morning together, looking for treasure. But while Gavi finds treasure everywhere; Mo only sees junk. Gavi collects the trinkets, convinced of their value; Mo simply doesn't understand. As they explore, dance together, and have fun, Gavi and Mo discover a priceless treasure on which they can both agree, in this early reader picture book for ages 4-7.
