Spork

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Isabelle Arsenault. Spork, the offspring of a spoon and a fork, feels conspicuous in the kitchen. Forks and spoons ignore him, and he goes completely unused--until a "messy thing" (a baby)--arrives on the scene. Nothing treacly about this mixed-cutlery tale; the clever text and lively illustrations have enough zest to make the lesson about fitting in around the table more than palatable.
