d Mrs. Ling's junk-sculpture assignment was to take one object that may be junk and turn it into something new. Give it a new life as art. Rafe like this idea. During Mrs. Ling's class, Matty passed Rafe a note that said he wanted to go Dumpster Diving. Matty said he knew a place where to go to find good junk that people threw away. Rafe told his mom he was going to work an art assignment after school. He told her he would take the bus home. He didn't lie, but didn't tell her the whole truth. He wasn't sure what Dumpster Diving was, but he thought it sounded like fun.
