Little Sweet Potato by Amy Beth Bloom-ADVISABLE



Bloom, Amy Beth, ill. by Jones, Noah Z., Little Sweet Potato. Katherine Tegen Books, 2012. PICTURE BOOK.

When Sweet Potato gets his first look at the world, he feels a shaking and a rumbling coming from the ground. Soon he finds himself dislodged from home and trying to find his way back. Will he succeed?

A cute read aloud for young children. The pictures are colorful, eye-catching, and complement the text well. The text is easy to follow and catches one’s interest. Readers and young children who like books about gardens, farms, and vegetables will enjoy reading this book. PreK, EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Kira M, Youth Services Librarian, W HI Public Library.
