Watts, Barrie creator China 25 p. 5 x 0.5 x 8.5 inches (hardcover) Of the recent books on potatoes, this is one of the better ones. The two-page chapters are attractive and visually appealing. The first of the two pages has a color photo or a black-and-white drawing in the center of the page. An average of seven or eight lines of text accompany the illustration on the facing page , which is a full page color photo. The text is brief as it should be on this level. The close-up color photography is excellent. While there are other titles in this area (Johnson's Potatoes Lerner, 1984), they are not for this reading level. A fine addition for primary grade nonfiction collections. Children's Literature Potato Fruits and Vegetables Plant life cycles Non-Fiction 0382095286 124786
