The Enormous Potato

32 pp. | Kids Can | September, 1998 | Trade ISBN 1-55074-386-4 $$14.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Dusan Petricic. A huge potato needs every available individual--from the farmer himself to a tiny mouse--to extricate it from the soil. This rendition of the popular and ubiquitous folktale is pleasing but somewhat flat. The illustrations are rich with the tawny hues of harvest time and sport some lively comic touches.
