The film tells the story of Bill, a young boy who discovers a worn and damaged book about the American Revolution in a secondhand bookshop and buys it for 25 cents. Through his experience, the film explores the lifecycle of a book, from creation to wear and tear, and the importance of proper care and repair. Bill, with the help of his schoolmates and Miss Walker, the librarian, learns how to mend torn pages, remove stains, and protect the book with a new cover and dust jacket. The film emphasizes the collective effort required to create a book and educates on how to extend its life through careful handling and repair, conveying a message of respect and stewardship for books. |
