					<description><![CDATA[Sixteen-year-old Louise travels with her father to the island of Lindisfarne every year ever since she can remember - it's the place Louise's mother loved best of all. The arrival of Hassan from war-torn Syria changes everything. Louise is restless and yearning for independence, and the fiercely free and self-reliant Hassan fascinates her. He seems to know the island from long ago as if it were his home from birth. Hassan is an acrobat, maybe a sorcerer, possibly a source of great danger. The wild gang of boys who call the island their home want to cast him out. The forces of love, death and hope move Louise and Hassan towards a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in a world that is both cruel and compassionate. Lindisfarne will change their lives forever.]]></description>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>&#8220;Chock-full of spudtacular puns and a feel-good surprise ending, Clanton offers a delightful laugh-on-every-page&#8221;</em> Booklist</strong></p>
<p><strong>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.</strong></p>
<p>Rot is a mutant potato who wakes up feeling great, maybe even?the greatest in the world! But that only makes Rot&#8217;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.</p>
<p>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&#8217;s not feeling so spudtacular anymore. Will this tater trio ever be able to determine who the greatest in the world really is?</p>
