Spoon has always been a happy little utensil. But lately he feels like life as a spoon just isn''t cutting it. He thinks Fork, Knife, and Chopsticks all have it so much better than him. But do they? "Spoon" serves as a gentle reminder to celebrate what makes each child special.
Annotation: Spoon is the hero of this down-to-earth picture book about learning to enjoy individuality as opposed to longing to be someone else. Spoon is a pretty content guy, but he sometimes wonders if the other utensils have more exciting lives. Perhaps Fork is really happier? Or maybe Knife has it all? Or perhaps Spoon is just fine as is. Amy Krouse Rosenthal is the author of numerous picture books.
