The Trial of the Potato Thief

An old man devotes himself to growing sweet potatoes, but every night someone sneaks in and steals some of them. Eventually he finds out that the thief is a family of wild boars. The boars and other animals feel that potatoes are the product of the earth, rain, and sun, and that humans are at fault for trying to keep them all to themselves! So which is the real thief? This is the question this picture book poses, leaving readers to ponder the issue for themselves. Readers are drawn in by the daring composition and bold lines of these humorous stencil-dyed illustrations. <Hiromatsu>
