#69: Spoon's Ice Cream

That night after bedtime stories,
Spoon's mom turned off the light,
tucked him in, and said...

"You know, Spoon - I wonder if you
realize just how lucky you are.

"Your friends will never know
the joy of diving headfirst
into a bowl of ice cream."

"They'll never know what it feels like to
clink against the side of a cereal bowl."

"They'll never be able to twirl around in
a mug, or relax in a hot cup of tea."

--Spoon, a children's picture book by Amy Krouse Rosenthal with illustrations by Scott Magoon
