What to expect
"Chock-full of spudtacular puns and a feel-good surprise ending, Clanton offers a delightful laugh-on-every-page” Booklist
Two spud siblings face off in a series of epic challenges in the first of a hilariously silly graphic novel series from the bestselling creator of the Narwhal and Jelly books.
Rot is a mutant potato who wakes up feeling great, maybe even…the greatest in the world! But that only makes Rot’s brother Snot the grumpiest in the world. The only solution? An epic contest to prove who is the greatest once and for all, judged by the only impartial party they can find—their small fry little sister, Tot.
But as the stakes get higher through the muddy potato sack race, sacred hot potato roll, and a hilarious laughing contest, their rivalry spirals out of control. Suddenly Rot’s not feeling so spudtacular anymore. Will this tater trio ever be able to determine who the greatest in the world really is?
Critics Review
-
"Chock-full of spudtacular puns and a feel-good surprise ending, Clanton offers a delightful laugh-on-every-page early chapter book for kids ready to tackle longer stories but with very simple text and visual context clues. The graphic novel elements interspersed throughout the standard illustrated text will hold great appeal for young readers." – Booklist ― November 1, 2022
"Delightfully goofy . . . Clanton brings puns aplenty to this starchy offering" Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books ― November 2022
"Comically emphatic dialogue, wry narrator commentary, and raucous mixed-media cartooning—including potato stamps—depicts the one-spudmanship. …Extending his impressive track record of funny geniality, Clanton renders the characters with earnest expressions" – Publisher's Weekly ― October 10, 2022
"Just as silly and appealing as Narwhal and Jelly….An excellent addition where early reader graphic novels are popular (that is, everywhere)" – School Library Journal ― October 2022
