Publisher's Synopsis

When the Pope visited Spain, an American company decided to cash in on the event by printing special T-shirts for sale there . . . except that instead of reading: 'I saw the Pope' (El Papa) they read 'I saw the Potato' (La Papa)!

A splendid romp through the most impressive mistakes, blunders, faux pas, misunderstandings, misinterpretations, universal-truths-that-are-not-true-at-all and howlers ever, all from the magnificently witty pen of Mr Philip Ardagh.
