(4) K-3 Illustrated by Carolyn Fisher. A young girl and her father spend time together planting potatoes in their garden. She is skeptical that anything will grow from their two withered potatoes, but in the fall both her potatoes and the time spent with her father have produced good results. The bright illustrations create a splashy collage effect but are sometimes busy. A recipe for creamy mashed potatoes is included.
