Spoon(s)


We read two of the cutest books tonight!! Spoon by Amy Krouse Rosenthal was one of them...the other I will save for another blog! Spoon is about a spoon who is feeling "blue" because he does not think himself as interesting or exciting as fork, knife or chopsticks. Spoon thinks they have all of the fun and have the most important jobs. Little does spoon know that fork, knife and chopsticks envy HIM and his jobs...banging on pots and pans, diving head first into ice cream, taking a hot soak in tea. This is a really creative, adorable read!! It holds great lessons...appreciate who you are, obviously, but also a lesson about being creative. This author wrote about a spoon! She looked around her house and made up a wonderful story about a utensil! Next time my kids are uninspired, I will remind them to study their environment and to think about Spoon...and how creativity is boundless!
