Chopsticks

Chopsticks
by Amy Krause Rosenthal
illustrated by Scott Magoon


Chopsticks were the best of friends.   Always together, the other kitchen utensils could not remember ever seeing them apart.   Then one day, while practicing a fancy culinary trick, one of the chopsticks broke!   While one chopstick was on the mend, the other reluctantly ventured out on its own to experience life as a single chopstick.   To its happy surprise, the chopstick found many new, exciting experiences.   When finally reunited, the two chopsticks were better than ever having both learned to be on their own!  

This humorous book teaches a valuable lesson about self-reliance and trying new things.   It is full of funny illustrations as well as many entertaining puns.   This will be a great read aloud to pair with one of Rosenthal's other stories, Spoon
