I really love children’s books! Although our daughter is more interested in non-fiction animal books at the moment, I always make sure we take a look at the new picture books when we visit the library. When I pulled out Spoon I just knew it was going to be a winner, and from her quick request to read it again please directly after I finished it, I knew it was.
Great children’s books have a clear message that children as well as adults can understand and appreciate. Spoon has a big lesson to share. Spoon begins to question his life as a spoon imagining life would be so much better and ultimately more meaningful if he were a fork, a knife, or perhaps chopsticks. Little does he know the wistful ways in which the other utensils long to be more like him.
This one is not to be missed!
