Purchase options and add-ons

Take silly seriously! A fall-off-your-high-chair funny picture book starring a spoon, a fork, and the baby they both want to feed, perfect for fans of The Bad Seed.

“Time to feed the baby!” yells clock.
Tiny Spoon is ready for the job! But who’s this pointy guy?
“I’m Little Fork. I feed the baby, too!”
Wait. What? This isn’t going to get ugly, is it? (Nah!)
Who’s known baby longer? (Spoon)
Who’s good at stabbing and poking? (Fork)
Who comes from the best family? (Both families are rather impressive.)
Who does baby like better? (Neither. Turns out Baby likes throwing both utensils across the kitchen, and that’s EXACTLY what baby does.)
 
Now it's going to take cooperation—not competition—to make their way back to baby. And when they do get back they'll still have to feed the baby. Anyone who has ever tried to feed a baby knows it ain't easy—but does it have to be this hard?

Review

A Kentucky Bluegrass Awards Preschool List title

“Will have your kiddos laughing hysterically." — We Are Teachers, Best Books for Kindergarten

“Must-read….Will get big belly laughs….genuinely hilarious and so much fun to read aloud.” — Book Riot

A BEST BOOK OF 2022. - Meridian magazine

“A fun story presented in comic book style with bright, vivid picture panels and speech bubbles. I love the personalities of the utensils." — Reading Power Gear

"Cutlery vies for a baby’s love in one of the sillier offerings of the list (and I mean that as a compliment).” — Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production, School Library Journal

"The illustrations are fantastic, full of detail, humour and fun… the storyline is entertaining….can be used to discuss differences, acceptance, friendship, babies and table etiquette. I love it and highly recommend it.” — Marilyn Panton, Storywraps

"This was such a cute story that could be used in many different ways. The story is funny, so children should enjoy reading this story aloud. It can also be used to talk about differences, friendship, babies, and even table manners. I loved it!” —Michelle Donaldson, educator

"Young readers will love the detailed and entertaining illustrations and the simple but inviting fonts and speech bubbles. The storyline is simple and fairly easy to follow, while still being very entertaining and appealing to young readers. As a grade 3 teacher I could definitely see this book in my classroom library and would recommend it to parents and teachers of children in the age 4-9 range.” — Angie Kuhnle, educator

Parent guy person here to say feeding little ones is not always easy, this book has the charm to get the job done! Nice pacing, likable characters, awesome illustrations, and just the right action make this a winning book. Stuffed bunny is hilarious! Perfect for your own kids and a very nice gift for others as well.

I read this out loud to my 4-year-old God Son, who just adored it. He asked me to read it multiple times in a row. I love the characters, and it's so funny. The bunny cracks me up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another beautifully illustrated gem from Hippo Park debut...
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2023
Like "Herbert on the Slide", my students are reviewing this book as well. A quick note: I've been reading all the books from this imprint of Astra Books for Young Readers, and I must say with the right presentation, these books are absolutely not just for the young. As a parent, it was delightful to have "Tiny Fork vs. Little Spoon" take me back to the days when I made up funny songs and sounds to distract my own children into eating!

Here's what my students thought of this book:

I had one guiding question: "Which would you prefer...the spoon or the fork?", and the personality of each child was beautifully evident in their responses:

"I like the fork because it can hold many things at the same time." Ian

"I prefer the spoon cause it has smooth corners. That makes everything stays in." Milo

"If I had a house full of talking things, my parents would get me to eat all my veggies." Pia

"I actually like both because they do different things." Charlotte

"That spoon and fork are very smart. They used their brains and decided its best to work together". Vicky

"Well, if you think about it, we need different things at different times. When we are babies, a spoon works just fine but when we get a little older, and we start to eat more types of food, a fork is good to have. but I would still keep the spoon". Mia

Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2022
Just received this book today. Such a fun and creative book. I bought it for my grand daughter for Christmas. I know she will love it! It is probably most appropriate for a child over 3, but I purchased with the intent of reading it to her as a baby and her reading it to me later! It is very funny

This book had me and my little niece giggling hysterically! (She's going to have a baby sister soon!) So funny that the utensils competing for Baby's affections! We read the book many times. And... then we had a wonderful idea: a game of make believe, using a spoon and fork as puppets & we made them talk. So much fun!

I read this book to a class of first graders I visit as part of teacher training.
Giggles. Gut-busters. Hands-over-the-face laughter.
They loved it.
Fair warning: do not read while eating or drinking. You will spit-laugh.
