Spoon

The “spoon” is a very interesting story written by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and illustrated by Scott Magoon. The story/book is about a Spoon who wished he was other appliances like fork and knives. The story starts off as the spoon explaining all of his different family members and how they’re all different in some way. One night the spoons grandma was telling him a bedtime story about how once when she was young she ran off with a dish. The next day Spoon was thinking about all the good things about being a knife or a fork and wished that he could dig into a cake or cut stuff. But when Spoon wasn’t listening to his friends say I wish I was Spoon has so nice and everyone takes me so serious, he’s so easy going.  That same evening the Spoons mother was explaining how lucky you are to be a spoon and how I don’t think you understand how grateful you should be about being a spoon, then the Spoon realized all the good things about being a spoon you get to dive into a bowl of ice cream or cereal and you also get to relax in a nice warm cup of tea. I think that this book is written for ages 5 to 15 because it shares a really important message. The message is how grateful you should be about how lucky you are to be able to go to school have a roof over your head because there are kids all around the world who would die to be in your situation.
