Potato: A Tale From The Great Depression

Kate Lied, Lisa Campbell Ernst

When Dorothy’s father loses his job and cannot find another, the family borrows a car and sets off for Idaho where jobs picking potatoes can be found. This true story, written by a child, gives children a vivid sense of the Depression on a level they can understand. The illustrations, simple and charming, are a perfect match for the story.
