The potato king / Christoph Niemann.
Legend has it King Gritz was among the first in Europe to recognize the value of the potato - a new wonder plant from South America. It cost little, grew easily, and could fill the stomachs of his people. His subjects, however, refused to eat this strange and ugly tuber. But the king would not give up. Known for his cunning on the battlefield, Fritz proved himself equally crafty on the farmer's field - to the delight of potato-lovers around the world today. This witty tale of trickery - cheerfully illustrated in potato prints - will satisfy readers of all tastes, whether they prefer their potatoes baked, fried, boiled, or mashed.--Inside front flap
