The Grass is Always Greener

Spoon wishes that he got to do more exciting things like cut into food like a knife, pick up hot things like a fork or work as a pair to pick up exotic foods like chop sticks.  Meanwhile, his friends think that he lives the grand life, scooping, stirring etc and Mama Spoon points out the wonderful aspects of his life, like bathing in a warm cup of tea.

It is a sweet and endearing tale of appreciating your own life for its positives and not dwelling on what others have.  BB was mostly interested in the happy illustrations.
