A great moral message, and it's really nice to the have the bilingual edition for families and people wanting to learn the language. ( ) I was expecting something different from this book. It started out with a poor husband and wife that owned only 1 spoon for them each. When they have a baby, they decide to ask their rich neighbor to become the Godparent. After some time, the poor family decides to save up enough money to buy a third spoon and invite their neighbor to dinner. After telling their neighbor that they got a third spoon just for him, he bragged to them saying he has enough spoons to eat fro a different one every day of the year. The poor family then tell their neighbor that they know a man that never uses the same spoon more than once. Upset that there is someone with more spoons than him, the rich man sells all of his belongings to be able to afford a different spoon for every bite and eventually goes broke. Every spoon that he ever used went to the poor family. The poor family told the rich man that the person who uses a different spoon actually uses a tortilla as a spoon and eats the tortilla with every bite. The rich man is now broke and the poor family sells all of the spoons to live a decent life. I feel the moral of the story is to be humble about the things that you have or you can loose everything. This is a Hispanic Folktale about a poor couple who invites their rich neighbor to dinner and the events that follow. I thought this was a funny book with a great moral. It an be used to share culture and different viewpoints. It would be a great way to start discussions on social justice or differences in SES. I thought the story was interesting and it might prove funny to children. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

In this folktale from New Mexico, a rich man tries to prove his wealth by using a new spoon for every bite and in the process is served a pretty dish of comeuppance. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
