Amazon Description

Everyone is certain it won't grow, but a little boy remains confident inhis carrot seed's potential. Watch as he carefully plants, tends to, and eventually harvests a carrot whose size is in direct proportion to his unflappable faith in it.

One Potato Review

In which the establishment is represented by an entire family of naysayers, leaning diagonally onto the page with their respective discouragements. Still: “Every day the little boy pulled up the weeds around the seed and sprinkled the ground with water.” Originally published in 1945, this book remains a manual for original thinkers.
