One Potato Review

You don’t have to look very far past the cover to appreciate the starry magnificence of this book. As it happens, the great, prolific Charlotte Zolotow provides the narrative here, about a boy at his bedtime reflecting on all that can happen in one day, and days to follow, and days on the other side of the world. Still, it’s Stefano Vitale who has finally found the perfect vehicle for his radiant wood paintings – of deserts and mountains and oceans and chockablock seasons. Says the mother, “Nothing ends,” but it’s one thing to put your faith in the inexorable cycles of nature, and quite another when someone this masterly is able to paint the way.
