A potato-sized rivalry

Rot, a mutant potato, is convinced he may be the greatest in the world; his brother Snot is less than pleased. Their little sister Tot judges a string of contests, including a potato sack race, hot potato roll, and laughing contest. The challenges turn sibling competition into the book’s central comic setup, while Rot’s confidence begins to wobble as the rivalry escalates. Presented as a graphic novel chapter book, the story pairs its absurd potato premise with familiar questions about winning, pride, and getting along with siblings.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy humorous graphic novels and chapter books.
  • Young readers interested in silly competitions and stories about sibling rivalry.

Book overview

Two spud siblings face off in a series of epic challenges in this first "delightful laugh-on-every-page" (Booklist) installment of a hilariously silly graphic novel chapter book 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?
