MySQL SQL Query Help

I have a table:

id fkid   foo    bar
1  1      345    yellow
2  1      34     red
3  2      3459   green
4  2      345    brown

I want to select the largest value of "foo" for a unique fkid, and return
bar, the results ordered by bar.  In this case, 345 is the largest value of
foo for fkid 1, and 3459 is the largest for fkid 2.  "green" comes before
"yellow."  My desired result set would be:

    fkid   foo    bar
    2      3459   green
    1      345    yellow

How would I write that in SQL?  fkid and foo are ints, bar is a varchar.
