by **Wes Hargis** (Author), **Wes Hargis** (Illustrator)

**_The Secret Life of Pets_ meets _The Bad Guys_ in DOWN IN THE DUMPS, an all-new, highly illustrated early chapter book series about three unlikely friends--a rotten banana, a broken tea pot, and a crusty blob of gum--and their adventures together in the local town landfill.**

Oh, no! In _Trash vs. Trucks_, the second book in the _Down in the Dumps_ series, the trucks are planning to move Nana's beautiful home at the Westerfield Waste Transfer and Recycling Center. And to a trash barge of all places, too! Nana isn't about to give up her beloved dump without a fight, but she'll need a plan first. Will Nana and her trash friends be able to save their home and stop the trucks from taking apart everything they've worked so hard to build?

_Trash vs. Trucks_ is the second book in the _Down in the Dumps_ series from beloved author-illustrator Wes Hargis. It will have even the most reluctant readers taking out the trash for more adventures!
