The Treasure Collector — David Zeltser

A funny, quirky tale of friendship and values featuring a remarkable and evolving friendship between a racoon and a starfishEvery night, Reginald goes on the hunt. He loves stuff. All kinds of stuff. To us, it might look like junk, but to Reginald, it's treasure! His most valued treasure of all is a label maker—how else is he supposed to identify each item in his collection?And then one night, Reginald finds something very strange. It feels squishy and strong at the same time. It’s not a toy. It’s not a cookie. (BLEH! Definitely not a cookie.) It must be junk. But is it? When the label maker stops working, Reginal discovers that some things aren’t things—they might even be friends—and sometimes what we think is junk turns out to be incredibly valuable.
