Fairytales are just great aren't they? They just never get old! We potatoes also have a few of our own! Here's one about two young potatoes named Mildred and Fredricton:
Once upon a time in a far, far away land lived two potato siblings named Mildred and Fredricton. They were told by their mother to gather some fertilizer. Unfortunately, there was no fertilizer nearby. They were already in lots of trouble because of a shovel incident so they couldn't face their mother without fertilizer. So Mildred and Fredricton decided to go to another farm to collect some. On that farm they see something unusual...a barn...is made up of lots and lots of clothes for potatoes and the theme song to their favourite show on the potalevision is playing... Being so young, they did not know better than to go and visit a completely strange place without protection from potential danger. After playing dress-up and watching about five episodes of "Super Potato" an elderly male carrot walks in the barn with a large bag. The young potatoes were always told to stay away from carrots but this one seemed so fragile and helpless so they decide to help the carrot. The three chat for a little while and Mildred and Fredricton are about to leave with a cart full of fertilizer given by the carrot but the door was shut tight! At that time, the old carrot revealed himself to be a young and powerful sorcerer who cooks potatoes and gives them to humans in exchange of the secret potion that helps him maintain his youth and gives him his powers. Mildred and Fredricton were on the verge of breaking down but they had to stay strong and think...think...think...An idea came to them! On an episode of "Super Potato" it was shown that love was a weakness of carrots, so the two young potatoes risked it all by running towards the carrot and giving him a great big hug. This did not work because everything on "Super Potato" is made up. It was a good thing that the mother of Mildred and Fredricton was told by a neighbour that they thought they saw the children there. The mother was very angry and dragged the kids back home, where they were grounded. The carrot sorcerer was too amazed by the fact that the mother potato showed no fear to realize that they escaped. Ever since that day, Mildred and Fredricton learned that they should not go to unknown places by themselves and that they should just do as their mother says.
We hope that you enjoyed this classic and we hope that you understand the moral of the story!
