Stuffed with puns, this "change in place setting, not exactly sequel to Spoon" (Disney Hyperion, 2009) will delight those who see all the clever artistic jokes. Best friends forever, chopsticks are one day separated when one suffers a break. Whisked away, chopstick's clean break can be repaired if he stays off it for a while. Knife, spoon, and fork are on-lookers who never remember seeing chopsticks separated. Independence and teamwork spice up the story. Magoon's inspired illustrations further extend the clever teasing. This is delightful for adult readers and illustrative of creative writing and whimsical art.
