A new, full-color edition of the timely and timeless tale Potatoes, Potatoes. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
K-Gr. 3. First published in 1967, this picture book introduces two brothers who are lured by the trappings of glory to become the commanders of opposing armies. After they lead their soldiers to war in their mother's own garden, they learn to value family and food more than fighting. The cross-hatched ink pictures appear to be identical to those in the first edition, but the restrained red, blue, and gray tones of the original art has been replaced with full-color washes. From the subtle earth tones of the potato plants on the dedication page to the brilliant reds, blues, and golds of the battle scenes, the additional color enhances the drawings and ensures a wider audience for this story and its timeless theme.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
This is a wonderful book with an uncomplicated plot.It is the age old story of the futility and suffering of war with a distinct potato flavor. Potatoes Potatoes is worth a look for the illustrations alone, intricate tapestiries capturing the period. Each detailed page is a stand alone work of art.
The message here is not necessarily profound, but it is powerful and moving. |
