Tomatoes from Mars

Mort Drucker's second children's picture book—and second collaboration with writer Arthur Yorinks—is a parody of a 1950s horror flick featuring Albert Einstein as the scientist and Jason Robards as the president. The book features Drucker's beautiful color artwork throughout. Out of print. From the publisher: They came from outer space. They were . . . Tomatoes from Mars! When these vicious Martian fruits invade Earth and threaten to cover it in sauce, the whole world looks to one man, one genius--Dr. Schtickle--to save it from becoming the second red planet.
