One Potato Review

A familiar tale told well, with large and classic-looking illustrations (The cover art depicted here does not do it justice). You always worry about a story like this that all of the animals will continue to tediously miscommunicate a story in exactly the same way, but here the rumor changes depending on the personality of the animal – a turtle, flamingo, and hippo among them – each lovingly rendered by this artist, who spent many years living and traveling in Kenya, and who seems genuinely motivated to bring these animals back with him, in all of their details and good humor.
