Shlemazel and the Remarkable Spoon of Pohost

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jacqueline M. Cohen. The village tinker tricks lazy Shlemazel into believing an old spoon will bring luck. But it's the work Shlemazel does with the spoon that leads to life's sweetest rewards--a worthwhile job and marriage to a good woman. Colorful folkloric illustrations tilt and swing across the page, perfectly complementing the well-told tale. An author's note describes the story's origin. Glos.
