B Michele Gentile, an Italian bookseller, is offering free books to children in exchange for plastic bottles to recycle. Michele owns Ex Libris Cafe in Polla，a small town in southern Italy.

Working together, the schoolchildren and Gentile collected enough cans to purchase books for an entire classroom. His new program too off from there and has already spread into northern Italy: Gentile's hopes his work will continue to make headlines and become a worldwide initiative. The free books come from customers in Gentile's shop who have donated money to purchase a ''suspended" book.
